Multiple if conditions but without using AND or OR

Hi

Is there a way of using | Pipes in the if conditions?

I would like to use a statement like this,
IF
Str_var = “Side|Front” instead of Str_var = “Side” or Str_var = “Front”

I can get the expression to work in the Matches activities but not in the IF or Flow decisions.

Am I missing something?

UiPath was build upon top of .Net framework Vb.Net, so we have to follow Vb.Net operations like below

I don’t believe using | will allow in UiPath

Mark as solution if this helps

Thanks

What you can do is create an array with “Side” and “Front” on which you can check if it contains your variable: Something like {“Side”,“Front”}.contains(Str_var)

I feared that the pipe wasn’t useful in these kind of situations, it would just be a whole lot easier when it’s 8-12-15 combinations that has to be checked in the if condition.

I think I’ll go for the array approach and see if that can sort out the conditions a little bit.
