When to use switch and when to use filter rows

When to use switch and when to use filter rows

Switch is used when you want to route records to multiple outputs based on the value of a specific field (e.g., Department = HR, IT, Finance).

Filter Rows is used when you want to filter data based on a condition and split it into two outputs: True and False (e.g., Salary > 5000).

In short:

  • Switch → Multiple value-based outputs.

  • Filter Rows → Condition-based filtering with True/False outputs.
