If / Switch

​

Types of Control Flow

​

If

The If node routes workflow execution based on a single condition. When the condition evaluates to true, the workflow follows the True branch; otherwise, it follows the False branch.

​

Switch

The Switch node allows routing based on multiple conditions. It evaluates conditions in order and routes to the first matching branch. If no conditions match, the workflow follows the default branch.

​

Condition Sources

The If and Switch nodes can evaluate boolean expressions from four different condition sources.

​

Data

Compare a field within the data key of the automation context with a value.

​

Profile

Compare a field within the profile key of the automation context with a value.

​

Step Ref

Check the current status of an upstream Send node, using it’s reference ID (Ref). The Ref value is defined in the Send node’s configuration.

Possible status values are: CLICKED, DELIVERED, ENQUEUED, FILTERED, OPENED, SENT, SIMULATED, UNDELIVERABLE, UNMAPPED, UNROUTABLE

​

JS Condition

Use JavaScript expressions when standard comparisons aren’t sufficient.

// Transform and compare values 
data.email.toLowerCase().includes('@company.com')

// Check for key existence or null values 
'preferences' in data && data.preferences !== null

// Compare date diffs as ISO strings 
Date.parse(data.lastLogin) < Date.now() - (30 * 24 * 60 * 60 * 1000)

// Manipulate nested arrays and objects 
data.orders.filter(order => order.total > 100).length > 0

​

Javascript Expressions in Value Fields

Javascript expressions can also be used in the Value field of Data, Profile, and Step Ref sources.

// Dynamic timestamps
${(new Date()).getTime()}

// Concatenate values
${data.firstName + ' ' + data.lastName}

// Default values
${profile.language || 'en'}
