Unito’s operators play a key role in how rules work. Here’s how.

What are operators?

An operator is a condition a work item has to meet for a Unito flow to take a particular action. Operators are an important part of building rules. Here are a few examples of Unito rules, with the operators bolded:

• If a Trello card is open, sync it to an Asana project.
• If a Smartsheet row’s priority dropdown is set to low, set issue status in Jira to backlog.
• If a ServiceNow record’s age field is greater than 10,  set priority in ClickUp to urgent.

Unito rules support many types of operators. You’ll find them below.
