Connections with Conditions

The Connection Creator is a general feature in PalDock that allows you to build integration flows by connecting elements (dots). Each element represents a specific function, from triggers and tools to flow control, requests, and integrations.

These elements are linked together through Connections that can include Conditions, enabling the flow to branch out based on defined outcomes.

When creating a condition, you define how PalDock evaluates a response to decide whether it is successful. Each condition consists of four parts:

  • Source – where to take the value from:
    • Body – a field inside the response body
    • Header – a response header
    • HTTP code – the status code of the response (e.g. 200, 404)
    • Constant – a fixed value defined manually
    • Query – a query parameter in the response URL
  • Key – the specific field or property to extract (the value in the response).
  • Operator – how the extracted value should be evaluated (see Operators).
  • Value – the expected value to compare against.

Example

  • Source: Body
  • Key: status
  • Operator: equals
  • Value: ok

This condition passes if the response body contains “status”: “ok”.
