Each conditional step
has a label that matches
the value that causes it
to execute.
Branching on a Switch Value
7. Inserting Flow Steps
When you branch on a switch value, you branch on the value of a single variable in the
pipeline.
To branch on a switch value
1 Create a list of the conditional steps (target steps) and make them children of the
BRANCH step.
2 In the Properties panel for the BRANCH step, specify in the Switch property the name
of the pipeline variable whose value will act as the switch. For more information
about this property, see “Specifying the Switch Variable” on page 170.
3 In the Label property of each target step, specify the value that will cause that step to
execute. For more information about this property, see “Specifying the Label Value”
on page 170.
