Conditional logic in Smart Data enables the manipulation of text and numbers within Templates and Designs based on specified conditions. This powerful feature allows for automated adjustments in pricing and typographic styling, making it easier to customize content based on the data in the Smart Database.
Conditional Operators: Conditional logic uses operators to evaluate conditions and perform actions accordingly. These operators determine how the text and numbers are manipulated based on the content in the Data Source records.
Price Layout Adjustment: Conditional logic is particularly useful for adjusting the layout of prices based on their values.
Styling Examples: Conditional rules can be applied to create different styling examples based on specific use cases. Multiple conditionals can be applied to a single entry, but only the first conditional query that returns true will be implemented. Any subsequent queries will be ignored. It is recommended to arrange the conditionals in order of highest to lowest value when setting up multiple cases.
By utilizing conditional logic, you can automate the customization of your Templates and Designs, ensuring that text and numbers are dynamically adjusted based on the data in the Smart Database. This provides flexibility and efficiency in creating personalized and tailored content.
