Confiform and Velocity Question

[Stuart Wosika]

Hi guys,

I want to check a value is >= (greater than or equals to).  Below is an example.  

I get errors If I do this.  The only operator I seem to be able to get to qork is == ( is equals to).

I read the Velocity documentation that says I can do this.  

Can someone help please?

BR.

Stuart.

#set ($vasSize = "[entry.asSize]")


{
	#if ( $vasSize >= 0 ) 
   "update":
	{
		"issuelinks": [
    	{
			"add":
			{
				"type":
				{
					"name":"Relates",
					"inward":"relates to",
					"outward":"relates to"
				},
				"outwardIssue":
				{
                          "key":"[entry.idea1]"
                }
			}
		}
       ]
	}
	#end
}

Hi

Well, if you set the variable as text... 

#set ($vasSize = "[entry.asSize]")

It is a bit too much to expect it act as a numeric in >= conditions

Hi Alex,

sorry are you saying that if the variable is text rather than numeric then >= or <= works?

Please refer to Velocity templating documentation for more details

This defines a text variable

#set ($vasSize = "[entry.asSize]")

But this defines a numeric variable

#set ($vasSize = [entry.asSize])
