# While

## While Activity

The WhileActivity activity iteratively executes its child activities as long as the result of evaluating its Condition property is true. A rule condition that is associated with the Condition property is evaluated before each iteration of the WhileActivity loop. If the condition evaluates to true, the child activities are executed. If the condition evaluates to false, the child activities is not executed, and the WhileActivity execution is terminated.   

To configure a While activity, drag the While workflow activity from the "Control Flow" module of the toolbox on to the designer.
