AI checklist conditions
1. Introduction
This update adds Conditions support for the AI checklist field. Conditions now evaluate for AI fields and, as a result, you can configure specific behaviours for your AI checklist field. This includes all three condition types - Show until condition met, Hidden until condition met, and Disable until condition met.
What’s not supported in this release:
Inside the AI checklist field conditions, the Mandatory until condition met field is not supported. Additionally, it’s important to note that for any other checklist field, you cannot use an AI checklist field as a Condition. This is because the AI checklist field is a button, and there is no field value to evaluate for qualifiers.
2. How the update looks on the platform
Start by navigating to the Manage view section → Open any process with an AI checklist field.
Open the AI checklist field → Settings → Conditions.
You will see three types of Default states. You can choose any one:
Show until condition met
Hidden until condition met
Disable until condition met
Click + Add New Condition, then configure the sections below:
Condition: In this field, you can select which metadata or checklist field you want your condition to evaluate on.
You can choose one of the metadata fields, such as Owner, Due date, Status, or User (Current user). Alternatively, you can pick one of the checklist fields of that process.
Note that the AI checklist field will not appear in this dropdown, as conditions based on the AI field cannot be created. The same is true for the following checklist fields: PDF, Revision, Section, and Subsection.
Qualifier: Qualifiers help you select what state you want your condition field to be in for your condition to evaluate. For example, you can select when your condition field is filled, then you want the behaviour that you will select in the next step to evaluate.
Note: If your qualifier is not met, your condition will simply stay in the Default states.
Behavior: Select the behaviour you want your field to apply if the condition is fulfilled. You can choose from the three options below:
Hide field
Disable/Lock field
Show field.
(Optional) If required, you can combine multiple conditions by using the “+ Add condition (AND)”. This functionality will evaluate as an AND condition, meaning that you can add multiple conditions to be true together for your chosen behaviour to evaluate as true.
(Optional) You can also use an OR condition in the AI checklist field. This means that you can add multiple conditions, and the system will first evaluate the 1st condition, if it’s not true, then move on to the next condition. If any one of the conditions is met, the system will evaluate the chosen behaviour.
Note that the system always evaluates the 1st condition initially; if the qualifier in the 1st condition is met, the chosen behaviour will evaluate. Only when the 1st condition is not met, the system will move on to the next condition.
Once you have configured your conditions, you can click on the “Update Field Settings” button followed by the “Save & Exit” button.

4. Logic guide for condition pairings
Show until condition met
AI checklist field is shown.
Apply selected Behavior: a. Hide field (it disappears) b. Disable/Lock field (remains visible but locked).
Show field (no visible change as the Default state and behaviour is same.)
Hidden until condition met
AI checklist field is hidden
Apply selected Behavior: a. Show field (becomes visible) b. Disable/Lock field (visible but locked)
Hide field (redundant as the Default state and behaviour is same)
Disable until condition met
AI checklist field is disabled/locked
Apply selected Behavior: a. Show field (enabled) b. Hide field (removed)
Disable/Lock field (redundant)
4. Before vs After
The AI checklist field conditions did not exist earlier as a functionality. This release adds conditions as part of the AI checklist field.
5. Feature Limitations
The AI checklist field supports only three behavior categories - Show until condition met, Hidden until condition met, and Disable until condition met. The Default State “Mandatory until condition met” is not available for the AI checklist field.
Specific field types are excluded from being used in the Condition selector when configuring AI conditions. The following field types cannot be selected as inputs for conditional evaluation:
AI Field
PDF Field
Approval Field
Revision Field
Section
Subsection
