parseCognigyScriptCondition

Syntax

parseCognigyScriptCondition(condition)

Description

Evaluates a CognigyScript expression and returns a true or false value.

CognigyScript allows you to embed expressions like {{context.value > 5}} within strings. This function extracts and evaluates such an expression, used in logic checks for Flows, conditions, or custom functions.

This function is useful for dynamically checking conditions at run-time based on session data and information from the Input, Context, or Profile objects.

Parameters:

• condition: string — the CognigyScript condition to evaluate.

Returns: boolean | null — the result of the condition, or null if evaluation fails.

Example

const result = parseCognigyScriptCondition("{{context.score > 70}}");

if (result === true) {
  // Proceed if the condition is true
  console.log("Score is high enough");
} else if (result === false) {
  // Condition evaluated to false
  console.log("Score is too low");
} else {
  // Evaluation failed
  console.log("Invalid condition");
}
