Condition Helper syntax help

Confluence User - 06 Jun, 2016

Hi!, i will be using condition helper in the process, what will be my syntax? 

the condition is, 

 

if the Worlkflow Variable "desti" has a word "Cebu" in it, regardless if it is "Cebu, Tanao" or "Cebu, Dalisay". 

as long as the word "Cebu" is in. it will go to that process. how will i use that in the condition helper. what will be my syntax when using the "%like' syntax. thanks!

Hi Jedi

Workflow process conditions are actually JavaScript comparison operators.

For your special case, set 'Use Condition Helper' to 'No' and enter this string into the 'Condition' field in 'Transition Properties':

   /Cebu/gi.test(desti) === true

The '/g' means global match and '/i' means ignore case.

Do some research about JavaScript RegExp and RegExp.prototype.test() functions.

No problems Jedi, in IT world, we are all learning. Sorry I should hv reword the last sentence as "You can find out more about JavaScript RegExp and RegExp.prototype.test() functions." :-) Happy Joget Building!
