# Default and Advanced Modes in the Condition Element

The condition element in expression sets has two modes: default and advanced. When you add a condition element to an expression set, the condition opens in the default mode. The default mode has a no-code user interface to build your condition expression. You can also switch to the Advanced mode in the condition element to enter your expression manually.

To add a condition to an expression set, open the expression set in the Expression Set Builder, click ![add element.](https://sf-zdocs-cdn-prod.zoominsoftware.com/tdta-ind-business_rules_engine-264-0-0-production-enus/b2d6dd5c-c231-428b-abbf-3dd2cd51a11f/business_rules_engine/images/add_element_icon.png), and then select **Condition**.

The condition element opens in default mode.

In the Resource field, select a variable or a constant from the list of resources that you created for the expression set. Next, select an operator, and then enter a value for the variable or the constant that you selected.

## Advanced Mode

To switch to the Advanced mode, click the show actions menu for the condition, and then select **Switch to Advanced Mode**.
