Hi all,

I was wondering if it was possible to incorporate `count` in the script condition, instead of the query?

If so, how do you do it?

Thanks in advance,

please take the time to properly write up a reproducible example, including a full watch, and the output of the execute watch api - a watch consists of several kilobytes of JSON, the same applies for the response of your outputs, so it is pretty much impossible to find out, what you are referring to.
