How to use 'choose ... when ..." policy statements to control execution flows?

✍: FYIcenter.com

If you want to control execution flows in Azure API management process, you can use the 'choose ... when ..." policy statement.

The "choose ... when ..." statement has the following syntax:

<choose>   
    <when condition="Boolean_expression">   
        ...
    </when>   
    <when condition="Boolean_expression">   
        ...
    </when>   
    <otherwise>   
        ...
    </otherwise>   
</choose>

For example,

<choose>  
  <when condition="@(context.Variables.GetValueOrDefault&lt;bool>("isMobile"))">  
    <set-query-parameter name="mobile" exists-action="override">  
      <value>true</value>  
    </set-query-parameter>  
  </when>  
  <otherwise>  
    <set-query-parameter name="mobile" exists-action="override">  
      <value>false</value>  
    </set-query-parameter>  
  </otherwise>  
</choose>
