Inside of condition OR operation works between criteria until the first match.

Path in the rules

You can create several paths in rules. Create a new path clicking the Add path button.

Comparison Operators and Regular Expressions

Peerclick has the following methods of comparison on conditions:

• Full match with a string - the criteria is considered correct with a full match with the string.

• The presence of substring - if there is a string in the checked value, the criteria is considered correct.

• Regular expression - you can record a criteria using a regular expression. For example, the Hel*o criteria will pass the values ​​Hello, Helo, Heo, Helllllllllllo, etc., and the [0-9] criteria will pass full values ​​from 0 to 9.

• Comparison of numbers - to compare numbers, use >, <,> =, <=, =,! = and the {token} macro, where {token} is the value that came into the parameter, for example, 10 <{token} <= 20. So if the value that came into the parameter is less or equal to 20 and more than 10, then the condition is met.

Rules Copying

You can copy any rule in a campaign and paste it into any campaign. To do this, use the Сopy (1) icon in the Actions header:

Click the Clear Buffer (2) button to remove the copied rule from the buffer.
Use arrows (3) to put a rule down.

If you need to copy more than one or all the rules you should use flows.
