# Only continue if

## What is Only continue if?

Stops your Pipe from running the next steps unless the configured conditions are met. If the conditions are not met, the Pipe ends at this step and no further actions are executed.

## Only continue if

| Field        | Description                                                 | Required?            |
| ------------ | ----------------------------------------------------------- | -------------------- |
| Field        | Select the variable that you want to check                  | :heavy\_check\_mark: |
| Is or is not | Set the logical condition                                   | :heavy\_check\_mark: |
| Condition    | Set the logical condition                                   | :heavy\_check\_mark: |
| Value        | Set the value that you want to compare the variable against | :heavy\_check\_mark: |

## Check step

You can expect one of these two results when you **Check step**.

<table><thead><tr><th width="118.28125">Result</th><th>Description</th></tr></thead><tbody><tr><td>true</td><td>The condition you set is met. Your Pipe will continue to the next steps.</td></tr><tr><td>false</td><td>The condition you set is not met. Your Pipe will stop here.</td></tr></tbody></table>

{% hint style="info" %}
**Check Step** is just a way to test your condition using the current sample data. It’s like a “preview” to see if your rule is working. In real executions, the result might change because the input data can be different.
{% endhint %}

## Common errors

<details>

<summary>Non-number used in value/field for comparison</summary>

This happens because you are comparing text against a number or vice versa.&#x20;

Make sure that your Field and Value fields are using numbers, if you are using conditions made for numbers (Greater than, Greater than or equals to, Less than, Less than or equals to)&#x20;
