Input Properties

These properties define data that the action uses when executing.

String	A string containing multiple fields separated by a delimiter.
Delimiter	A character that separates each field in a string.
Result Var	The variable name that is created and holds returned information. For example, if the contact enters their account number as 123456, then the variable holds 123456.
Column	A character index in each element to sort on. The first character is 1.
Order	Determines the sort order whether it is an ascending or descending sort. Ascending sorts the list from A to Z or 0 to 9.

Result Branch Conditions

Result branch conditions allow you to create branches in your script to handle different outcomes when an action executes.

Condition	Description
Default	Path taken unless the script meets a condition that requires it to take one of the other branches. It is also taken if the action's other branches are not defined.
