I'm trying to trigger a simple view bulk operation (unpublish a batch of nodes) with Rules 2 and Drupal 7. I've been trying to add an action but only get exposed Load a list of entities from a VBO View while I'd be waiting for "Execute a VBO" or similar instead.
Is there anything I'm missing ?

That action is no longer
That action is no longer available in Drupal 7. Instead, you can use the VBO to load a list of nodes, and then loop through the list to unpublish each node.
An example of how it can be done is found here: http://dev.nodeone.se/en/using-vbo-to-load-list-of-objects-into-rules
Good luck!

Thank you very much ! I'm going to look into this carefully.
Performance difference?
A bit of outdated topic but is there a performance difference in those two approaches? Old "fire VBO" seems to be much faster, as it is basically just generated database query, right?
