1.3.4.8.1 Comparison: ALL in List

The ALL in List comparison determines if all the values contained within the attributes are present in a list.

Use the All in List comparison as a way to apply a Match rule only to a subset of the data by checking for records that only contain particular values from a list.

This comparison does not support the use of result bands.

The following table describes the configuration options:

Example

This example uses the All in List comparison to only apply a Match rule if all country codes in a comma-separated list of country code tokens, on both records being compared, are contained within a list of country codes. For the purposes of the example, the list contains the values US and UK, but does not contain DE.
