Do I need to click on the boxes in a condition action, if there are multiple or conditionals

[mcnemare1]

Hey,

This might be a dumb question, but I have always wondered if I've been doing this wrong.  As shown below I have a conditional or action. I have really never clicked the boxes next to the conditionals, what do they mean? do I need to have all the boxes clicked?

My goal is, if any of these conditions are true, to flow to the 'True" side of the flow, otherwise 'False' side of the flow. 

I have been using PA for 2 years now, and am now wondering if I've been doing it wrong.

Hi @mcnemare1 ,

No dumb questions here, so keep asking!  That's what this community is for - always glad to help!

Ok, you don't need to check the boxes and your current condition will be True if the value is:

0

1.01

null

Then under the True side, it will do those actions.  If not one of the above, it will do the actions under the False side.

What I normally do before I go too far into the woods, is add a compose or current time action under True to test and validate my conditional step works as expected.

Thanks Tom,

That reassures me, what are the boxes for then? 

What would happen if I just clicked the boxes next to Null and 0.0? and not the one with 1.01

Best,

Ethan

Hi @mcnemare1 ,

To answer your 2nd question:  you can use the checkboxes if/when you want to move items around, as in the order they occur; and also if you want to group items together.

Hi @mcnemare1 ,

If you check the boxes except null, it won't do anything.  See previous response.
