I have a actionperformed script on a button but it seems one of my if statements refused to work. see the image beneath, It will print the part marked in yellow, and it says that the variables i used are the same. But the things i want to do in the if statement are not executed at all. (the writings to label and button are just for testing because of this bug) ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/inductiveautomation/original/2X/9/957a13349561c6335f98c69dd86638547c85742f.png) ---

Just taking a quick guess at it, but have you compared the datatypes of what your comparing? eg. “print type(tag[user][“UserID”]))” vs “print type(userid)” ---

hmm, it seems that “self.session.props.auth.user.id” is indeed not an integer. I used the userid as integer. Thanks
