Looking for an easy way to join branches...?

I am looking for a way to join logic paths back up, so that i don't require triplicate activities...

 

For example, if I query 3 different layers based on user input / choice, but then either way i want to zoom to an expanded extent of the results ( etc...).

 

In 4.x world in either path you would set a variable 'queryResults' and just make sure the lines connected back up to the common activities...

 

in 5... Every activity has a different id, so how would i tell the common step which 'queryResults' object to use...

 

logically i'd like to say in a GetFeatureSetExtent Expression...

=$query1.results || $query11.results || $query111.results

 

and then based on the path only one would ever have a value...

 

But that didn't work for me... Any ideas / suggestions?

 

 

 

In 4.x workflow

  OK... So i found 'a' solution...

   

  I used 'Create Value', and just got each branch to 'SetProperty' of that value... I guess that is how you can create variables?

  That's correct. "Create Value" is a way of defining a variable. You can then use "Set Property" or "Evaluate Expression" to update the value of your variable.

   

  The expression "=$query1.results || $query11.results || $query111.results" is likely not doing what you expect because $query1.results is an object (an empty FeatureSet) even if the query operation didn't find any features.
