RapidPro Expressions
RapidPro messages and flows can contain expressions which are evaluated at runtime. These come in two flavors: simple and advanced.
Simple Syntax
This is used to embed single values, e.g.
Hi @contact, you entered @flow.age for age. Is this correct?
Advanced Syntax
This is used to build more complex expressions using similar syntax to Excel formulae, e.g.
Hi @(PROPER(contact)), you are @(YEAR(NOW()) - flow.year_born) years old. Is this correct?
