Types of decision logic

You can use different types of logic when you add the Decision shape to a flow. By understanding what makes each type unique, you can create flows that make decisions more effectively.

You can use the following types of decision logic in a flow:

  • Boolean expression - Returns a true or false value, based on an evaluation of conditions and properties that you define.

  • Decision table - Returns a single value for the row in the table that meets the conditions, expressions, and value ranges that you define.

  • Decision tree - Returns a single value for the branch in the tree that meets the if-then logic that you define.

  • Fork - Evaluates when conditions, expressions, and likelihoods that you define to determine which connector advances the flow to the next shape in the sequence.

  • Map value - Converts one or two input values into a single-value result.
