IF function - Reformat component

I have problem with CloudConnect application. I'm trying to write a transformation code in REFORMAT component, but there is a problem with if function. Maybe the problem is with =, but I have no idea how to fix it. 

function integer transform() {
    $out.0.date = str2date($in.0.Date, "yyyy-MM-dd");
    $out.0.price = str2decimal($in.0.Amount);
    if ($in.0.Purpose = 'A') {return "Facebook";} else if ($in.0.Purpose = 'B') {return "Google Adwords";} else {return SKIP;};
    return ALL;
}
Solution

  • Like in other programming languages, the single equal sign (=) is the assignment operator. That is,

    $in.0.Purpose = 'A'

    assigns the value 'A' to $in.0.Purpose variable. In your case, you need to use the comparison operator (==).
