Interface action to enable macro based on a condition

[DanielCarro]

Hi,

I am struggling with an issue and need some advice.

So, I have a formula with a condition:

If [Needs Approval]="YES" THEN "YES" ELSE "NO" EndIf

I need to instruct the macro to send an email but I need it to trigger based on "YES".

Once I enter the control parameter, not sure how to specify in the action to recognize "YES"

Much appreciated your assistance.

Regards,

Dan

Hi @DanielCarro I would use a Interface Condtion tool connected between the Control Parameter and via the T anchor of the condtion tool to the Action tool . In the condtion Tool a formula like [#1]="Yes" will only flow to the action tool when it equals Yes. [#1] is the name of the stream (line) between the Control paramter and action tool so therefore may be different for you based on your workflow. If you just click on the control parmater from the section of Connections from question when you are setting up the condtion tool it will just autofill that section for you.

Hi @DanielCarro you are on the right track. However rather then type your field out in the condtion click on it. You will see it as [#1] as that is the name of the stream/line between the control parameter and condtion tool. Next your action tool needs to set be as Enable/Disable Container from condtion via the dropdown. Have a look at the attached macro for referance.
