Hi I’m trying to use an If/Else statement to choose what model is used for my ElevenLabs API call. Step 1: ID is returned from script module ![Screen Shot 2024-02-06 at 10.30.59 PM](https://europe1.discourse-cdn.com/flex013/uploads/make/original/3X/6/6/6683e959c2e444a74b2cd4434ae10ddb0523fe87.png) Step 2: result from Step 1 is added to next module, http module, and if/else is within one of the fields to choose between ElevenLabs models based on the result of Step 1. ![Screen Shot 2024-02-06 at 10.31.12 PM](https://europe1.discourse-cdn.com/flex013/uploads/make/original/3X/3/1/31d83a469913b1935dbdafc9c25cd02eb54f0f6e.png) Here’s the result of step 2: ![Screen Shot 2024-02-06 at 10.31.41 PM](https://europe1.discourse-cdn.com/flex013/uploads/make/original/3X/6/8/6857233297b0f78b1a237c7ff0454a76f67dbb3d.png) As you can see, the result from step 1 doesn’t match any of the values in the IF statement, but it didn’t use the else value for the model\_id. I’m not sure what I’m doing wrong, this is my first time using the If/Else feature. ---

You can’t chain `or` this way. You need to repeat the {{20.result.data = }} for each “`or`” ```plaintext if ID = "value1" OR ID = "value2" OR ID = "value3" OR ID = "value4" OR ID = "value5" then do_something else do_something_else ``` ---
