Branching
Branching allows your flows to make decisions based on conditions, directing execution along different paths depending on the given input. The If
node is commonly used for this purpose, allowing you to define logic where execution follows one path if a condition is met and another if it is not.

Generating a Value: In the example above, the
Random
node produces a number between0
and10
, which is sent to theIf
node.Evaluating a Condition: The
If
node checks if the value is greater than5
using thepredicate
input.Branching Execution: If true, execution follows the
then
path; if false, it follows theelse
path.Logging the Result: One of the
Log
nodes prints either “Value is large” or “Value is small” based on the condition.
There are several other branching nodes, wich support various use-cases:
Std Switch - is used to select one of two values based in two potentially incoming paths
Std OrElse - is used to select a fallback value when you have a value which can potentially be null.
Std Match - is used to create an arbitrary number of branches based on a list of potential values.
Std Fork/Std FanOutRange/Std FanOutList - these nodes can be used to fork a flow into multiple independenc processes, which execute concurrently and can be joined together again using Std Join and Std JoinAll.
