Passing values between functions in the web ui

[zweaung1014]

For example, i have three steps in the process: Extract, Analyze, and Suggest. Each step will output a boolean value. If true, go to next step. If false, exit. I wanna be able to specify on the web ui if I want to move on to the next step by typing true or false. if I type true on the ui, it will execute the next step and ask me if i wanna go to the third step.

Hi, for using output as a decision making, it will look like this, with if in flow control:

but if you mean human-in-the-loop decision between every step, I would suggest to put a pause (in flow control) between steps, it will let the user decide if they want to continue or stop.

Thanks, Ivory! We don't necessarily need to pause it, but the if statement you showed is useful. Also, is there a way for the user to manually enter "True" or "False in the web ui? It should go to workflow B only if the user enters True for workflow A. If False, then it should go to workflow C.

a way of doing this is to use #user_input to make it into a dynamic parameter, and configure this as parameter sweep, this still need user to make decision before the experiment tho
