5. Control Flows Activities

 

The activities listed under Control Flows are commonly used in PopFlow. These activities allow you to create more complex and conditional workflows. These control flows enable the automation to make decisions and take different actions based on specific conditions, which can help streamline the automation process and increase efficiency.

5.1 Condition-based Logic

Control flows allow you to specify condition-based logic in your automation. For example, you can use an "if-then-else" statement to check if a certain condition is true or false, then take different actions depending on the result. 

 

Switch Conditions & For Each are also accessible to create more complex workflows that handle various scenarios.

 
 

5.2 Stop/Start Workflow 

Adding the flexibility to stop the execution of a workflow or call into another workflow. With the ability to add branching logic, a workflow can be tailored to specific use cases and scenarios, executing into another workflow with the option of returning to a parent workflow. 

 
 

5.3 Phone Number Parsing

Phone number parsing can help localize phone numbers to specific countries or regions, allowing you to format and display them correctly for different audiences. This can be especially important for international businesses that must communicate with customers in different countries.

Phone number parsing can help standardize, validate, segment, localize, and integrate phone numbers, making them easier to manage and use in various workflows.

 

 

Using control flows, you can create more efficient and streamlined workflows requiring fewer steps to complete a given task. This can reduce the complexity of the automation, making it easier to understand, maintain, and troubleshoot.
