Hi All, my requirement is check the nested watcher conditions.  
if ( message = "File received" )  
if ( message = "file not loaded" )  
then send alert for not loading  
else send alert for not receiving

We already implemented inner if else by using payload hits.  
query: {  
bool: {  
must: [  
{match\_phrase: {message: file loaded }}  
]  
}  
},  
condition: {  
compare: {  
ctx.payload.hits.total: {  
lt: 1  
}  
}  
},  
actions: {  
-- SEND MAIL --  
}

Please help me how to achieve the multiple conditions.
