## Purpose
Use this component to create 1 or more boolean expressions that test specified conditions and to log messages if those expressions evaluate to `false`.
Note: An orchestration doesn’t automatically stop processing if a validation fails.
## Template Availability
This component is available in these orchestration templates:
- Synchronous
- Asynchronous
- Business Process
- Home Card
- Integration System
- Custom Agent Actions
## Properties
Provide a meaningful Reference Name for the step as it will appear in your orchestration.
Provide a Name for the validation.
In the Validation field, use Expression Builder to specify a boolean condition.
Select the Severity of the message that's logged when a condition evaluates to `false`, either Warning or Error.
In the Message field, use Expression Builder to create the content of the logged message.
Downstream steps can reference these outputs from the Validate component:
- `allValid`
- `anyError`
- `anyWarning`
- `failedValidations`
The `allValid` output evaluates to `true` if none of the validations evaluated to `false`.
The `anyError` output evaluates to `true` if 1 or more validations evaluate to false with a Severity of Error.
The `anyWarning` output evaluates to `true` if 1 or more validations evaluate to false with a Severity of Warning.
The `failedValidations` output is an iterator type that you can use in conjunction with a Loop step to iterate through failed validation messages.
The `failedValidations` iterator has 3 functions that can access data from a failed validation:
- name
- severity
- summary (the log message)
