Overview

This action will increment or decrement a property defined within the workflow

 

Setup

This action can be configured to increment or decrement a workflow property.  Only workflow properties can be manipulated by the Increment/Decrement Action.

Property

  • Choose an existing workflow property created upstream in this workflow
    • Choosing a non-number datatype workflow property will cause the contact to go through the failure branch
  • Create a new workflow-specific property
    • Set the datatype as number

Increase or Decrease

  • Choose from add or subtract
  • Only integers are allowed

Value

  • Define the integer that will be added or subtracted from the workflow property

Note:

If you want to update an existing property (e.g. an existing contact attribute), make sure to utilize the Set Workflow Property action upstream of the Increment/Decrement action.

  • value
