Does Bubble conditionals support short circuit evaluation?

[pallygg]

Hi there,

I couldn’t find any information online or in the forums about this question so I figured I’d make a post.

The closest post I could find is this one but it was from 2016 and there was no answer to the question https://forum.bubble.io/t/optimization-bubble-operating-in-practice/1296

My question is the same as the title, does bubble conditionals support shirt-circuit evaluation?

e.g. When (CONDITION 1) and (CONDITION 2) are true DO X

If CONDITION 1 is evaluated to false, then the second condition is not checked.

We have several conditions that are calculated from semi-expensive operations e.g. API calls, so if short-circuiting is supported, we can reorganize some of our conditionals to optimize our performance.

Hi there, @pallygg… the short answer to your question is yes, and you should definitely check out this thread.

[Small performance optimization] boolean operators can now shorthand

Hi everyone, I would like to let you know that we have just rolled out a small change to our evaluation engine, which we believe could lead to significant performance benefits to some apps. When Bubble evaluates an expression in general, any modifier will evaluate its own properties (the fields that you see in the property editor’ slidable panel) and its argument (the right side of the operation, if there is one) before it evaluates the result of the operator. For something like “A and B”, Bu…

Best…
