Dynamic notes provide the ability to use portal variables and if, else, each and unless logic statements. Culminating in the ability to create a more personalised user experience without the effort of having to create many individual versions of the same note.

Below you'll find an example of what's possible with dynamic notes, here we are using one to welcome the student and through automations and user attributes we can display their last 3 scores!&#x20;

You can use dynamic portal variables and user attributes for personalisation, contextual links, and relevant information.

Using logic operators allows you to take user data, check and perform various operations depending on truthy falsey values or matching values.

Below is a list of the Logic operators available to use in a note:

<table><thead><tr><th width="161">Logic operator</th><th width="251">Behaviour on a dynamic note</th><th>Syntax</th></tr></thead><tbody><tr><td>if</td><td>If condition A is true, execute block A.</td><td><pre data-overflow="wrap"><code>{{#if user.firstName ""}}  Hi {{user.firstName}}
</code></pre></td></tr><tr><td>if/else</td><td>If condition A is true, execute block A. Else, execute block B.</td><td><pre data-overflow="wrap"><code>{{#if user.firstName ""}}  Hi {{user.firstName}} {{else}} Who are you? {{/if}}
</code></pre></td></tr><tr><td>if/elseIf/else</td><td>If condition A is true, execute block A. Else If condition B is true, execute block B. Else If condition C is true, execute block C. If no conditions are true, execute the else block.</td><td><pre data-overflow="wrap"><code>{{#if  user.firstName ""}} Hi {{user.firstName}} {{else if user.email ""}} Hi {{user.email}}  {{else}} Hi there! {{/if}}
</code></pre></td></tr><tr><td>unless</td><td>Unless condition A is true, execute block A.</td><td><pre data-overflow="wrap"><code>{{#unless user.name "John"}} Weclome to the portal John! {{/unless}}
