The Purpose
Need to translate from an input value to an output value?
A switch statement can do just that!
NOTE: Similar to the concept of a Lookup Table: https://zapier.com/help/create/format/create-lookup-tables-in-zaps
How to Configure
NOTE: All values are treated as strings.
Copy the Code
LOGIC: Takes a Value input and compares it to the case conditions in the switch statement.
- If a match is found, the execution stops, and the original value is translated to the new value.
- If no match is found, then the original value is returned.
let Value = inputData.Value;
// 'break' will stops the execution
switch (Value) {
case "1":
Value = "Low";
break; // stops the execution
case "2":
Value = "Mid";
break;
case "3":
Value = "High";
}
output = t{Value}];The Results
