The CASE and DECODE functions used for manipulating and transforming data within your Saved Searches. Both functions allow you to perform conditional logic and return specific values based on specified conditions.
CASE Function:
- Definition: CASE is a conditional function that evaluates a list of conditions and returns corresponding values when those conditions are met.
- Syntax: CASE WHEN condition1 THEN result1 [WHEN condition2 THEN result2 ...] [ELSE default_result] END
- Use Case: CASE is ideal for complex decision-making scenarios where you need to evaluate multiple conditions and return different results accordingly.
