-------

The **Bool** block sends a true or false value from its output port. This can be useful when you want to control your flow based on a condition. For example, you could send the **Bool** block's output to an [**If**](/docs/postman-flows/reference/blocks/if/) block. The **If** block could then route incoming data to one of two other blocks, depending on whether the **Bool** block's value is true or false.

## Output

**True** or **False** - Sends a true or false value, depending on the state of the **True/False** toggle.

## Setup

Click the toggle to set the block's output to true or false.

You can [insert](/docs/postman-flows/reference/blocks/overview/#insert-data-blocks-into-other-blocks) the **Bool** block into certain blocks instead of connecting it to them. For a list of blocks you can insert the **Bool** block into, see [Related blocks](#related-blocks).

## Example
