  • After filling the values in the given fields you can close and save the activity by clicking outside of the activity panel.

  • You will notice three child buttons under the 'Get data' Activity. 

  • SINGLE MATCH: if the 'get contact' activity has only one value then this button activity will execute.

  • MULTIPLE MATCH: If the 'get contact' activity has multiple values then this button activity will execute.

  • NO MATCH: If no result then this button will execute. 

You can open any activity on these buttons and can use the result of 'Get Contact' activity to execute the several activities, like on 'Single match' you can open the workspace of the customer, on 'Multiple match' you can do the 'Pop search and select' and on 'No match' you can create a contact.
