Equals

Merges the word True or False depending on whether two values are the same. Use it inside another merge tag that expects a true or false value, rather than on its own in your content.

Syntax

{{eq data data2}}

Parameters

Name	Type	Required	Description
Data	Text	Required	The first value to compare.
Data2	Text	Required	The second value to compare.

Note: The comparison is case sensitive, so Customer and customer are not equal. That is worth knowing because several neighbouring helpers behave the other way: If equal, If contains and If starts with all ignore capitalization, while this one and Not equal do not. Pass the field through Lowercase first if your data varies.

Note: To show different content based on a comparison, use If equal instead. That merges your own content for each outcome, where this merges only the word True or False.

Examples

The examples below are based on the following sample content:

{{eq Contact.FirstName "customer"}}

A. The contact's FirstName field is customer

True

B. The contact's FirstName field is anything else

False
