"IF" flow logic returns incorrect results when a number value is added to string data type output inside the script step Description "IF" flow logic returns incorrect results when a number value is added to string data type output inside the script step

Steps to Reproduce

Create action Add REST step Add script step Input the status code of the REST step into the script step Create output in script step of type string In the script step, assign the status code input variable to the output variable (see screenshot) Create an output of action of type String add the action in a flow, and add an "IF" flow logic and compare it to any string Expected behavior : since our output of the action is 3 digit number, the "IF" should evaluate to false Unexpected behavior : instead of 3 digital code and string is evaluated to true

Workaround before it leaves the script step, make sure to use the .toString() method.
