Branch conditionals empower users to set a single variable and conditional operator rule, and then create multiple branches of outcomes tailored to the values evaluated against the specified condition.
With the ability to define diverse paths based on varying values or outcomes, these Branch Conditional Steps elevate the sophistication of your workflows, providing a nuanced approach to shaping the flow of your processes.
You can get started adding your conditional logic by clicking on a + button in your workflow and selecting the Branch Conditional step from the Workflow's toolbox.
Branch Conditionals work differently from standard Conditionals, in that they only support one single condition being defined but can have multiple different value outcomes.
You can define your single conditional rule by entering a variable in the text field and selecting a conditional operator from the dropdown menu.
Conditions we support are:
Boolean Equals
Is Boolean
Is Null
Is Numeric
Is Present
Is String
Is Timestamp
Not
Numeric Equals
Numeric Greater Than
Numeric Greater Than Equals
Numeric Less Than
Numeric Less Than Equals
String Equals
String Greater Than
String Greater Than Equals
String Less Than
String Less Than Equals
String Matches
Timestamp Equals
Timestamp Greater Than
Timestamp Greater Than Equals
Timestamp Less Than
Timestamp Less Than Equals
Once you have defined your conditional rule, click and drag from the icon attached to the Branch Conditional step within the workflow to create a new value branch.
The Create Branch dialog will open and allow you to specify a:
Label - the user-friendly name for your outcome
Value - the value that will be evaluated against the condition
Type - the type of outcome being handled (Default
, Positive
, Negative
, Warning
or Info
)
Enter these values for your branch and click Create.
You can create as many branches as required for your condition to handle different outcomes.
Branches can be edited by simply clicking on the branch and editing its values in the sidebar window or removed by clicking the Delete button.
