| | =====Description===== |
| | Between two input datasets (the result of the previous action in the current table, and a final state of another table), //Either table// chooses the one that is not empty. If both tables are not empty, it gives preference based on the action settings.\\ |
| |
| **Use cases** | \\ |
| | =====Use cases===== |
| | * "If-then" types of workflows. In this scenario, the workflow should be organized in a way that makes empty either one table (when a condition is fulfilled) or another (when the condition is NOT fulfilled). Then //Either table// is used to pick a non-empty result dataset. Since both tables can have different sets of actions, it allows for applying different action logic depending on the condition. |
| | * Insertion of arbitrary datasets at any point in an action chain with the help of the [[transformations:sandbox|Sandbox action]]\\ |

| | ^Setting^Description^ |
| | |Other table|Select the table with the results that will be used in place of the current dataset, if it's not empty.| |
| | |Mode|Choose which dataset will have priority if both are not empty. Options: //Use this table if it's not empty, otherwise\\ use the other one// or //Use the other table if it's not empty, otherwise use this one//.| |
