The first non-empty branch element allows you to filter
branches in the order they appear on the canvas. The first branch that contains recommendations is
allowed through, all other branches are blocked.
The name of the element as it appears on the canvas.
API Name
The API name of the element. The API name must be
unique.
Description
Optional description of the element and how it works
within the strategy.
Example Let’s say you have five different types of credit card offers that could be surfaced to a
single user. Although each offer type is unique and must have its own branch, you only want to
surface one type. To do so, filter all of your branches that contain credit card offers through a
first non-empty branch, in priority order from top to bottom. Your element only allows the first
branch that contains recommendations.
Usage
Branches are filtered through the first non-empty branch element in the order that they appear
on the canvas, moving from top to bottom. The element evaluates each branch until it finds one
that contains recommendations. When the element recognizes that a branch contains
recommendations, it allows those recommendations through and blocks recommendations from all
other branches.
