Introduction to BizzStream Expressions

BizzStream expressions are similar to spreadsheet formulas and always resolve to a single value. They are used to dynamically control document behavior, field values, and conditions. For instance, the BizzStream expression 2 + 2 resolves to 4.

BizzStream expressions are used in the following places:
