At the moment, it is not possible to validate attributes that are set as part of the WorldServer workflow and use this information to, e.g., assign human actions to a specific workflow role depending on the attribute value.

I would like to see this functionality added as an out-of-the-box feature in WorldServer because it would keep workflows manageable in more complex scenarios.

Here´s an example for a use case:

At one point in my workflow, I have a human action where project managers decide which LSP is going to do preparation work on a translatable asset (extract non-editable text). Depending on the choice, a project attribute (LSP A or LSP B) will be set via the auto action Set Project Attribute.

I would like to see an option that allows me to check that project attribute and change the assignees of a given human step depending on the project attribute value. In my example, if LSP A was assigned the prepare document step, then the translate step should also be assigned automatically to that LSP.

The way things are right now, I either need to assign the steps manually or I need to duplicate the workflow branches. In multi-LSP scenarios this leads to large workflows that are quite hard to manage.
