# File Content Condition

With the help of the File Content Condition it is possible to use the whole or parts of the content of a file as a condition for further actions. The path and the extension of the file as well as the part of the content that is defined as a condition are specified. This makes it possible to combine one workflow with another by, for example, writing information into a text file in one workflow, which can be read out again in another workflow and made a condition. The file condition can be queried in every stream, as it is not linked to the project object or the user object.
