Conditional logic and branching

Last updated: 2026-08-19

Branching is what separates a call flow from a static IVR. The Condition component evaluates one or more rules and sends the call down the matching branch.

What you can test

SourceExamples
Call dataCaller ID, DID/DDI dialled, trunk, call direction
Caller inputDigits captured by User Input or Menu
System dataQueue waiting count, agent status, extension presence
External dataFields returned by HTTP Request or Database Access

Operators

  • Equals / not equals
  • Greater than / less than (numeric values such as queue length)
  • Starts with / contains (useful for country prefixes)
  • Is empty / is not empty (checks a lookup actually returned data)

Combining rules

Rules inside one Condition are joined with AND or OR. For more than two levels of nesting, chain several Condition components instead — the canvas stays readable and validation errors point at a smaller area.

Worked example: VIP routing

  1. 1

    Look up the caller

    Use HTTP Request to query your CRM with the caller ID and store the response field tier.

  2. 2

    Branch on the result

    Add a Condition with the rule tier equals gold.

  3. 3

    Route each branch

    True → Transfer to the VIP queue. False → Transfer to the standard queue.
