CONTAINS can be used in conjunction with the IN operator, to create a step condition based on the value containing a string within that value. This can be useful in certain scenarios to help significantly cutdown on the number of steps/rules that you might otherwise need. For example, if you have a dropdown with values such as:
EU – France
EU – Germany
EU – Italy
EU – Greece
APAC – Australia
APAC – New Zealand
APAC – Malaysia
AFRICA – South Africa
AFRICA – Zimbabwe
AFRICA – Ethopia
LATAM – Colombia
LATAM – Brazil
LATAM – Argentina
…and want to create a skipping rule based on the selected value being a European country – you can now achieve this with one single CONTAINS step/condition (EU*), instead of having to create a step/condition for each of the individual EU country values.
