Hi everyone!
I want to simplify my workflow with less steps (if possible). I was wondering if I could input an OR statement within a ‘create new thing’? Image below to support what I am trying to achieve.

Thanks!
You can use arbitary text and format as
And use the no and yes for putting values accordingly

What’s the use-case of using OR in the create a new thing action?

@Zeroic I made a video trying to explain what I am trying to accomplish.

Got it - you should add the condition in Step 3 that it should create a package template in the DB only if it does not exist. After that, in the SAWOL, you can keep the same parameter in the packagetemplate parameter, since by then, it would have created a record in Bubble, if it didn’t exist.
Additionally, you should keep in mind that workflows in Bubble do not run sequentially, which means that sometimes, the Schedule API workflow action would run before executing Step 3. In this case, you should force the sequence. You can do this by changing the packagetemplate parameter in your SAWOL action, from Search for Service Record Pkg Items: add item: Result of Step 3: first item
This way, since you are referring to Step 3 in Step 4, Bubble will always ensure that Step 3 is run before Step 4.
I hope this is helpful
