Conditional

Branches the workflow based on a true/false condition - if/else logic.

The Conditional node splits the workflow into exactly two branches based on a condition. One branch executes when the condition is true, the other when it is false.

When to use

Use a Conditional node whenever your workflow needs binary branching - a yes/no, true/false, pass/fail decision point.

Common examples:

Validation gates - check if the input data meets requirements before processing (e.g., “Is the order total above the minimum?”)
Feature flags - route to different behavior based on a toggle (e.g., “Is the new billing system enabled?”)
Error handling - branch based on whether a previous step succeeded or failed
Eligibility checks - determine if a user qualifies for a promotion, discount, or approval

If you need more than two branches (e.g., route to one of several departments based on a category), use a Decision node instead.

Condition rules

The Conditional node evaluates an array of conditions. Each condition compares two values using a comparison operator. Multiple conditions can be chained with logical operators (AND / OR).

Property	Type	Description
X	Text	Left-hand value of the comparison
Comparison Operator	Dropdown	How to compare X and Y
Y	Text	Right-hand value of the comparison
Logical Operator	Dropdown	AND / OR - how to chain with the next condition

Properties

Property	Type	Description
Label	Text	Display name shown on the node card
Description	Text	Short description of the node’s purpose

Conditional vs Decision

Both nodes handle branching, but they serve different purposes:

Aspect	Conditional	Decision
Branches	Exactly 2 (true / false)	Any number
Logic	Evaluates a condition	Matches a value against multiple branches
Best for	Yes/no checks, validation gates	Routing, categorization, multi-way splits
