If Else

Description​

This activity uses conditional or branching statements to execute different statements/branches based on whether a given expression is true or false. It includes a condition, a True branch, and a False branch. The Condition field must contain a Boolean expression that determines which branch to execute: True or False.


Common settings​

Use Process Data to bind supported inputs to workflow values or upstream outputs. See Common Activity Features for shared execution, error-handling, and output-persistence settings. Availability depends on the activity.

Design-Time Configuration​

Display Text​

Specify the activity name that shows in your process.

Condition​

Specify the condition expression. If the expression is true, the True branch executes; otherwise, the False branch executes. Click on the vertical ellipse to choose the following options.

OptionsDescription
DefaultWhen you select this option, specify the condition directly.
JavaScriptSpecify the condition using JavaScript expression.
LiquidSpecify the condition using a Liquid expression.

Execution settings​

Configure Wait All Incoming when execution paths converge, and On Error for failure handling. Select Inherit where available to use the workflow-level error policy.

Example: Route a Boolean value​

Insert a Boolean approval flag from Process Data into Condition, selecting the appropriate expression syntax. Connect True to the approved path and False to the alternative path. Supply a Boolean result rather than the literal text of an unevaluated expression. Use Switch Cases for more than two alternatives.
