Is there a way to convert a String to evaluable SAIL expression ?

I have a comparative expression saved in a database field, I need to retrieve it from the database and evaluate it within a condition in SAIL.

    You could try eval(). My understanding is that this is an undocumented function. You will have to test to make sure that it works with your Appian version. Example: eval("count({1,2,3})") returns 3. In your case, you may want to have an expression rule with a text input with the expression, and use eval(ri!input) as the rule definition.
