constraint:
Not set
Gets the property from the vRealize Orchestrator workow presentation.
Constant
Sets the element you are editing to required or optional.
Field
Binds the element to another element from the form. For example, you can
set the element to be required only when another element, such as a check
box, is selected.

Applies a condition. By using conditions you can create various clauses and
expressions and apply them to the state or constraints of the element.
External
Select a vRealize Orchestrator script action to dene the value.
