Hello guys may I know the symbol used to represent the logical OR in UI Path.
Your simple example with the use of OR operator will be highly appreciated.

If you’re using default settings (with regards to underlying language, specifically), the operator Or can be used.

What you’re doing there is setting status to “Expired”. EDIT: On double-checking myself, that’s a remnant of my Java origins, VB.net doesn’t have a distinct comparison operator.

To check if a string already has a given value, use Status.Equals(“Expired”), this returns a boolean making it a simple matter of Status.Equals(“Expired”) Or Status.Equals(“Terminate”) to check both.

Happy to help.

If you’re absolutely one hundred percent certain that your Status can only have a one-word value, what I tend to do is use Status.contains(“Terminate”) instead so that I don’t end up breaking my code by leaving a white-space in a config file, though Status.Trim.Equals() would be the correct way to achieve this (but I’m lazy so if I really want to sanitize my input I’ll do so separately).
