A switch activity, such as a flow activity, has multiple branches. In the example that follows, there are only two branches shown in the .bpel file after design completion. The first branch, which selects a loan offer from a company named United Loan, is executed if a case condition containing an XPath boolean expression is met. Otherwise, the second branch, which selects the offer from a company named Star Loan, is executed. By default, the switch activity provides two switch cases, but you can add more, as needed.

     '/autoloan:loanOffer/autoloan:APR') >
     bpws:getVariableData('loanOffer2','payload','/autoloan:loanOffer/autoloan:APR
     ')">
