Hello!
As i have checked with the action, there isn’t any option to add a condition(if then else) to the action menu.
Would it be possible to add this in the near future?

Hi,
To add a condition to your Action, select the “Create new Action” option at the top of the available actions and you’ll be brought to the Action Editor where you can add as many conditions as you’d like!

Hi!
Thanks for the reply sir!
Yes, however, i can only add the condition before starting the action not after the action.

Yes, this is true. The condition must be at the start of the action.

Feature already requested here:
> [@Action Editor \> Connect/Add branching actions and conditions](https://community.glideapps.com/t/action-editor-connect-add-branching-actions-and-conditions/24544):
>
> The action editor is the most powerful feature of glide. It’s one limitation is that conditions are only allowed at the root level. Would love the feature to check one condition, make one change (like an increment or set column) and then continue the workflow/path contained in a separate condition. Kind of hard to explain in words. Watch the video below to see what I mean. Image uploaded by @Lucas_Pires@tristan @jason
