Each action has a “Execute Condition” in Runtime page. &nbsp;I can evaluate a variable to turn it into boolean value. &nbsp;However, is that possible to reference an action object (e.g.: self action) and access some property like “description” in the “Execute Condition”. &nbsp;e.g.: Self.description == ‘Test’

Hi Chau,   
  
 The execute condition occurs too early in the process for the action to have all its properties set correctly. It is for this reason that it is not available in the execute condition. The solution would be to set a variable with the value to test in the execute condition.
