🔀 If/Else Node

The `If/Else Node` is a type of `condition` node used to branch execution flow based on a set of filter conditions expressed in `JSON Logic`. Unlike the Filter Node, which returns a boolean result, the If/Else Node determines which edge to follow in the diagram.

🧾 Form Data Fields

Field	Type	Required	Description
`filters`	JSON object	✅	A JSON Logic object used to evaluate conditional logic and determine the branch to take (`true` or `false`).

⚙️ Execution Logic

Preprocessing:

Loads required user fields, metrics, and targets referenced in the filter logic.

Evaluation:

The filters are evaluated using a JSON logic engine.

Outcome:

If the result is true, the true edge of the node is followed.
If the result is false, the false edge is followed.

Return Value:

Returns the boolean result of the filter evaluation. This value is not used directly by the flow — instead, it determines the edge to follow.

✅ Validation Rules

Rule	Description
Filters must be defined	The `filters` field must exist.
Filters must not be empty	At least one logical condition must be present.
Filters must include values	JSON logic must include actual conditions with values or variables.

🧪 Example Logic

{
  "and": [
    {
      "<=": [
        { "var": "effective_at" },
        { "var": "deal.$close_date__12_months" }
      ]
    },
    {
      "==": [
        { "var": "deal.stage" },
        "Won"
      ]
    }
  ]
}

This logic will follow the true path only if:

effective_at is before or equal to deal.$close_date__12_months, and
deal.stage is "Won".
