Conditional Operators

These operators are used by Conditional Rules to perform comparisons between an input field value and a value expectation.

Available Operators

eq (equals)

The eq or equals operator asserts that an input i is exactly equal to the expectation e (i = e).

Example

For an hypothetical workflow containing the rule:

// (...)
{
  "type": "Conditional",
  "field": "amount",
  "operation": "eq",
  "value": 200,
  // (...)
}
// (...)

And the workflow execution input:

{
  "amount": 300
}

The condition amount eq 200 would be false since 200 ≠ 300.

in (in)

The in operator asserts that an input i is present in array e (i ∈ e). It expects an array of values in the value field.

The data type of these values needs to comply with the data type defined in the respective scope. As an example, if the amount field is set as Numeric, then the array may only contain numeric values.

Example

For an hypothetical workflow containing the rule:

// (...)
{
  "type": "Conditional",
  "field": "amount",
  "operation": "in",
  "value": [200,300,100],
  // (...)
}
// (...)

And the workflow execution input:

{
  "amount": 100
}

The condition amount in [200, 300, 100] would be true.

gt (greater than)

The gt or greater than operator asserts that an input i is greater than expectation e (i > e).

Example

For an hypothetical workflow containing the rule:

// (...)
{
  "type": "Conditional",
  "field": "amount",
  "operation": "gt",
  "value": 300,
  // (...)
}
// (...)

And the workflow execution input:

{
  "amount": 500
}

The condition amount gt 300 would be true.

gte (greater than or equal to)

The gte or greater than or equal to operator asserts that an input i is greater or equal to expectation e (i ≥ e).

Example

For an hypothetical workflow containing the rule:

// (...)
{
  "type": "Conditional",
  "field": "amount",
  "operation": "gte",
  "value": 400,
  // (...)
}
// (...)

And the workflow execution input:

{
  "amount": 400
}

The condition amount gte 400 would be true.

lt (less than)

The lt or less than operator asserts that an input i is greater than expectation e (i < e).

Example

For an hypothetical workflow containing the rule:

// (...)
{
  "type": "Conditional",
  "field": "amount",
  "operation": "lt",
  "value": 300,
  // (...)
}
// (...)

And the workflow execution input:

{
  "amount": 200
}

The condition amount lt 300 would be true.

lte (less than or equal to)

The lte or less than or equal to operator asserts that an input i is less or equal to expectation e (i ≤ e).

Example

For an hypothetical workflow containing the rule:

// (...)
{
  "type": "Conditional",
  "field": "amount",
  "operation": "lte",
  "value": 400,
  // (...)
}
// (...)

And the workflow execution input:

{
  "amount": 400
}

The condition amount lte 400 would be true.

between (between)

The between operator asserts that an input i is within the range specified in array e (i ∈ [ e1, e2 ]). It expects an array of exactly 2 values in the value field that will be used to delimit the expected range. It is inclusive in both ends.

The data type of these values needs to comply with the data type defined in the respective scope. As an example, if the amount field is set as Numeric, then the array may only contain numeric values.

Example

For an hypothetical workflow containing the rule:

// (...)
{
  "type": "Conditional",
  "field": "amount",
  "operation": "between",
  "value": [200, 300],
  // (...)
}
// (...)

And the workflow execution input:

{
  "amount": 250
}

The condition amount between [200, 300] would be true.

Data Type Compatibility

Different field data types mean different operators available. Below is a table that summarizes the compatibility between field data types and the available operators.
