Compare custom property to list as "all in list" but opposite direction

[AlexeyG]

Hi. I have custom list of strings (list A) defined on MWG and i want to do check if custom property of given user (also list of strings - list B) has all strings from list A if i do regular "User-Defined.MyProperty - All in List - List A", i`m checking if all strings from List B exist in List A. But i want opposite: Check if user-defined property (List B) contains all strings from List A.

Hello!

So your problem is that you cannot select the list you have created as a list object on the left, in the criteria dialog?

There are a few options.

1.) Create another user-defined property of type List.OfString. Make a rule before your current rule that sets User-Defined.My.NewUserDefinedProperty = YourList, where "YourList" is the list created in MWG. The content of this list is not stored in the User-Defined Property, which you can select on the left in the criteria dialog.

2.) On the left instead of picking the list directly select a property like List.OfString.Join or List.OfString.Sort and provide your list in MWG as the list to work with. Now you have the content of the list on the left, and can compare against your list in the user-defined property.

Best,
Andre
