Imparfait will typically refer to an action that lasts in time or was repetitive (a habit). So you will often use it when you would use "was/were doing" and "used to do" in English.
Passé composé, by contrast with imparfait, will refer to a "one-off" action - for that in English you would use preterit ("did").
