Hello everyone, one question: within the action editor, Glide does not allow the inclusion of a second if in a group of actions that already have an if defined initially? For example, if a cond1 is true, it must perform actions 1 and 2 , but in the third action it must be consulted for a cond2, if it is true it executes the third action, otherwise it does a fourth action, if the cond1 is false it carries out another set of actions.

Have you tried building out branches to cover all the cases?

Sounds like you want child branches of logic, which is not available as of now. We have talked about this since custom actions become a thing, but at the moment you can only do it horizontally like Eric said. You have to cover all the possible cases.

OK, thank you very much.
