Definition and Usage
Check a condition and execute actions if true. The If command allows you to create conditional logic in your automation workflow, executing specific actions only when the defined condition evaluates to true.
Parameter Values
Input parameters
Parameter Name | Description | Possible Values | Required | Options / Notes |
First operand | Enter a variable, expression, text, number, or symbol created by a previous command to compare with the second operand | Any value | Yes | Supports variable insertion |
Operator | Choose the relationship between the first and second operand | Equals to (=), Not equal to, Greater than (>), Greater than or equal to (>=), Less than (<), Less than or equal to（<=), Contains, Does not contain, Is empty, Is not empty, Is true, Is false, Starts with, Does not start with, Ends with, Does not end with | Yes | Select the appropriate comparison operator |
Second operand | Enter a variable, expression, text, number, or symbol created by a previous command to compare with the first operand | Any value | Yes | Supports variable insertion |
Ignore case | When checked, string comparisons will ignore letter case | True/False | No | Useful for text-based comparisons |
Variables produced
This action doesn't produce any variables.
Using Variables in Conditions
Variables can be inserted into both the First operand and Second operand fields by clicking the {x} button or selecting from previously created variables.
When using variables in conditions, ensure that the variable type is compatible with the comparison operator you've selected.
Text variables work with all text-based operators like "Contains", "Starts with", "Ends with".
Numeric variables work best with mathematical comparison operators like ">", "<", "=".
Boolean variables work with "Is true" and "Is false" operators.
Notes
The If command must be paired with an End If command to close the conditional block.
Any commands placed between the If and End If will only execute if the condition evaluates to true.
For more complex conditions, consider using nested If statements or the If Else command.
When comparing text values, consider using the "Ignore case" option to make comparisons case-insensitive.
Empty strings and null values are treated differently; use the appropriate operator ("Is empty" or "Is null") based on your needs.
