Automagic Forum

Hi,
I have this simple script in a flow :
if (call_type ==1)
{vtelnr = incoming_number
}
else
{vtelnr =called_number
}
and it works, but then I have a similar script that I cannot get to work
if (call_type ==1)
{vinut = "telefonsamtal till"
}
else
{vinut ="telefonsamtal från"
}
But I cannot catch the value. Either I get the last value "telefonsamtal från" Even if it is a incoming call or I get no value or a flow error. I have been trying for a long time to get this simple if.. then.. else.. to work, and it is driving me nuts, so shamefully I am humbly asking for help. I have tried with stating the variable first, I have tried setValue, do I need add list or something else? I should mention that I have separated a long flow into four flows (to be able to reuse some of the flow's for similar purposes).

Help please with this stupid question?

Hi,

You can add log the value to the Automagic log when the script was evaluated and see if the variable has the value you are expecting:
if (call_type ==1)
{vinut = "telefonsamtal till"
}
else
{vinut ="telefonsamtal från"
}
log(vinut);

You could also add a condition Debug Dialog right after the script action to show a dialog with the variables and the corresponding values.

Are you trying to access the variable in the same flow or from another flow? If you want to access the variable in another flow, you can use a global variable instead (for example global_vinut).
Can you describe in more detail how your four flows work? Is one flow calling this flow with an action Execute Flows? If yes, you could also enable options Wait for called flows to finish and Return variables to the calling flow to make the variables visible in the main/parent flow.

Thanks for your answer, after days of not getting it to work, it now works as a partial flow. The flow must have broken somewhere else. I will have to buy myself a Android pad so it is easier to check and get a better overview. (Bluestacks on my pc have a bug that I have reported that has not yet been taken care of)
