Hello all,
I’m using the app to monitor a career section of a particular website. Im setting the condition then on text, I put all the words in this format:
Word1|Word2|Word3
I want any of these words (not all) to trigger the notification
Is this correct? or should each one have their own condition with an OR.
thank you!

@chilefree1988 The Word1|Word2|Word3 format will not work for Conditions in this case.
The better approach is to create a separate condition for each keyword and combine them using OR.
For example:
Added text → contains → Word1
OR
Added text → contains → Word2
OR
Added text → contains → Word3
This way, the notification will trigger if any one of those words appears in the detected text.
Also, you can use the Test conditions button available in the Conditions section to verify the logic:
That helps confirm whether the conditions are behaving the way you expect before saving the monitor.
Thank you.
I see that the OR would indeed be better. However, would ‘Word1|Word2|Word3’ work?

@chilefree1988 Word1|Word2|Word3 would not work here. This field is not designed to use pipe-separated values, so the correct approach would be to use the OR condition instead.

@chilefree1988 Alternatively, you can also use regex here. If you switch the condition to matches regular expression, a pattern like \b(Word1|Word2|Word3)\b will match any of those words in a single condition.
Thank you!
I managed to solve the problem with Global Conditions.
is there any way to monitor for text just that exact text? (not a contains)?

@chilefree1988 the best way to do an exact match would be to use:
matches regular expression
For example, if you want to match only:
Word1
then use:
^Word1$
The ^ means “start of text” and $ means “end of text”, so this ensures the text matches exactly and not partially.
thank you, makes sense. On expression I put the word with the symbols you mentioned. On Flags?
lets say Im looking for JOB123
what about \bJOB123\b and then in flag gi?

@chilefree1988 Yes, you can leave the default flags as gim.
