Decide Shape
The Decide shape represents a decision based on if/else logic. The shape always has a branch for the "if" statement and a branch for the "else" statement; you can add additional branches for "else if" statements as needed. You use the Expression editor to add a rule to each branch except the "else" branch. If the rule evaluates to true, the branch will be taken. Below the rule or "else" clause, a branch of a Decideshape can contain additional shapes, just like any other part of the orchestration.
