Filters

The filter is one of the most powerful features which helps you to filter the data coming from another app or the data stored within the picky assist and perform Actions based on the filter matching conditions,

For example, if the age of the person is between 18-25 and the gender is male then perform a set of actions defined by you, similarly, you can create any number of filters and specify actions that are specified to the filters

You can create Unlimited AND filter conditions and decide whether to match all conditions or match any conditions to perform the action in the step.

Match All Conditions: If you select this then the system will match all conditions configured in the filter i.e all conditions should be true to take further actions

Match Any Condition: If "Match Any Condition" is selected then the system will proceed to the next step if any of the conditions in the filter becomes true.

Please note if the filter condition is false then it will skip the action configured in the step and moves into the next step in the order, so if you want to perform separate action for both filter conditions i.e true and false then please create another step with the false condition just below the true condition step

Below are the available data types and conditions to filter

In List & Not In List
