if then statement in email for deal property

Thompson_DHARMA — Thu, 08 Aug 2024 10:22:41 GMT

I am using the edit HTML module in an email (not an email template) and trying to get the following bit of code to work:

{% if deal.deal_currency_code == 'USD' %}usd text{% else %}non-usd text{% endif %}

I am previewing it with the currency code property above it so that I can compare, but it only shows the else text.

The issue is not letter case. What am I missing here?

I also ran a print test using this and it came back false, even though the test deal is definitely USD.

{% if deal.deal_currency_code == "USD" %}usd text{% else %} non-usd text {{ deal.deal_currency_code == "USD" }}{% endif %}

Hey @Thompson_DHARMA

Check the type of the value using the type function:

If it's not "str" try converting it using the string filter first.

best

Thanks Kevin! With your advice I did use the string filter but it's still not working, unfortunately.

We're tried all sorts:

{% if personalization_token('deal.deal_currency_code') == 'USD' %} usd text {% else %} non-usd text {% endif %}

{% set currency_code = personalization_token('deal.deal_currency_code') | string %} {% if currency_code == 'USD' %} usd text {% else %} non-usd text {% endif %}

{% set currency_code = deal.deal_currency_code | string %} {% if currency_code == "USD" %} usd text {% else %} non-usd text {% endif %}

I have solved this myself. I created a Module in Design Manager and entered this code.

{% set currency_code = deal.deal_currency_code | string %} {% if currency_code == "USD" %} usd text {% else %} non-usd text {% endif %}
