Conditional if text is found or not

asked on April 17, 2017 Show version history

Hello, I have a workflow that runs on Word documents when changed. The workflow is set to find the following {#v#} and replace it with {EntryIDvVersion#}. I use Find and Replace with Pattern Matching to find this in the Footer of the document. 

 

Is there a way to setup a conditional decision that would only run the remainder of the workflow if the text string is found? I didn't find anything searching through the conditional choices that stood out to me.

 

Thanks for the help in advance!

Depending on how you set up your pattern, you should be able to differentiate between when it picked up the value and when it's blank.

You could use a Retrieve Document Text activity and then a Conditional Decision or Conditional Sequence that evaluates on if text was found in the Retrieve Document Text activity.
