Branch Selector (2 Branches)
Route workflow to one of 2 static branches based on numeric index or branch name. Perfect for binary decisions (yes/no, true/false, pass/fail, etc). Each branch is a separate workflow path you can build in the editor. Automatically includes an Error branch for invalid inputs.

When to use this node #
Route workflow to one of 2 static branches based on numeric index or branch name. Perfect for binary decisions (yes/no, true/false, pass/fail, etc). Each branch is a separate workflow path you can build in the editor. Automatically includes an Error branch for invalid inputs.
Add Branch Selector (2 Branches) to a workflow branch using the node picker. Configure its fields in the inspector, then connect the next step.
Configure the fields #
| Field | What to enter |
|---|---|
| Branch Index | Specify which branch to take. Accepts multiple formats: 📊 Numeric Index (0-based): • 0 → Branch 1 • 1 → Branch 2 📝 Branch Names (case-insensitive): • 'branch 1' or 'branch1' → Branch 1 • 'branch 2' or 'branch2' → Branch 2 💡 Usage Tips: • Connect String Operations output: extract_number result → Branch Index • Connect Text Parser output: match1 → Branch Index • Connect Switch Case output: convert text to number → Branch Index ⚠️ Error Handling: • Invalid input → Error branch (automatically added) • Out of range → Error branch • Empty input → Error branch Example Workflow: Check Condition (true/false) → Branch Selector (2) → Yes/No branches |
Use the result #
Choose the output from the variable picker in a later step. Output names below identify the values supplied by this node; the picker inserts the correct reference for your node instance.
| Output | Meaning / label |
|---|---|
selectedBranch |
Selected Branch Name |
success |
Success (true/false) |
error |
Error Message (if any) |
Connect the next step #
This definition exposes these paths:
- Branch 1 — branch 1.
- Branch 2 — branch 2.
- Error — branch 3.
Connect each relevant outcome, especially any error or timeout path. Outputs can differ by outcome; check that a result exists before using it.
Test it in a workflow #
- Configure this node with a small, recognizable test input or a test resource.
- Check the variables from preceding steps and the connection selected in the inspector.
- Save the workflow. For event-driven flows, generate the actual event; use Run only for a Manual workflow.
- Open Workflow Activity and check the outcome before enabling wider use.
If something goes wrong #
- Check empty variables, selected resource IDs, and any fields that appeared after resource selection.
- Check the failed step in Workflow Activity before retrying. If the action may already have completed, inspect the destination first to avoid duplicates.
- Follow the troubleshooting guide for a symptom-by-symptom checklist.
