This article will show you how set a field in Salesforce conditional on data inside your Source Platform. In this example, we will set the custom field field Lead Source (LeadSource) on the Contact record to Raisely but only if the Platform is Raisely.

Note: this article is an extension of the article Decision against Salesforce Data where a value of Raisely is being set on the field Contact.LeadSource when a value does not already exist for Contact.LeadSource.

Add Decision

In your Flow click the + icon to add a new Element and select Decision. Configure your decision with the following information:

You now need to identify the value to use to determine if the platform is Raisely. To do so, open a notification and click into Execution:

Inside your Execution, scroll down to Contact Parameters and note the available values:
