Type

Condition item

Available from

Any level tab in the Prompt File Editor

Data Node in the Call Flow Editor

Purpose

The Condition item makes it possible to select and play different prompt or data segments based on the condition being tested. It works in conjunction with If and Else items to test conditions. The Else item defines a default for cases where no conditions of an If item are met.

In the Call Flow Editor, the Else item is used to conditionally execute different operations based on the evaluation of logical statements. It works in conjunction with an If item to execute operations when the "If" condition evaluates to a "false" value.

Behavior

The Else item cannot be used independently but must be used in conjunction with the If item.

If there are multiple If items, they are all tested for first. If none of the conditions being tested for are met in any of the If items, the system returns the result assigned to the Else item.

Properties

The Else item has no inherent properties. It can only have one or more prompt segments assigned to it.
