# Using Branch Conditionals

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.

## Define Conditional Logic

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.

### Add Condition

Branch Conditionals work differently from standard Conditionals, in that they only support one single condition being defined but can have multiple different value outcomes.&#x20;

You can define your single conditional rule by entering a variable in the text field and selecting a conditional operator from the dropdown menu.&#x20;

Conditions we support are:&#x20;

* 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

### Creating Value Branches

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.&#x20;

The Create Branch dialog will open and allow you to specify a:&#x20;

* 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**.&#x20;

You can create as many branches as required for your condition to handle different outcomes.&#x20;

#### Deleting Branches

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.&#x20;
