ForAnyValue:BoolIfExists

ForAnyValue:BoolIfExists

compares a list of booleans in a request to a boolean in your policy.

To match a request, the context key must exist in the request and at least one boolean in the request must match the boolean in your policy.

You can use policy variables in the value of this operator.

Warning

ForAnyValue:BoolIfExists is actively confusing. Any operator starting with ForAnyValue ignores IfExists — it is not evaluated against the entire array, only against a single value at a time inside the ForAnyValue loop. Use ForAnyValue:Bool instead so your coworkers don't hate you.
