Case Action


Author: Brad Kim

The Case Action operation is one of the signature operations/plugins on the STU Toolbox. I It helps you design a BOT with a complex decision-making capability much similar to human’s decision-making processes in real life. It can take any input and navigate your BOT to any steps depending on the predefined rules.
