Queries Elasticsearch to determine if the contact matches the segment's
query string. Returns true if the contact is in the segment, false otherwise.
Raises an error if the contact argument is missing or doesn't have a uuid.

Time
monotonic_time()
Returns the current monotonic time in native units.
Monotonic time is guaranteed to always increase and is not affected by system clock adjustments. This makes it ideal for measuring time intervals and computing latencies. Use with time_elapsed() to get duration in milliseconds.
Example 1:
When used as a Journey expression it returns a value of type Integer: 123456789.
card MyCard do
my_var = monotonic_time()
# When used in a piece of text prefix it with an `@`
my_var = "@monotonic_time()"
end
time_elapsed(start_time)
Calculates the elapsed time in milliseconds since a given start time.
Takes a monotonic timestamp (as returned by monotonic_time()) and returns the duration in milliseconds from that timestamp to now.
Example 1:
When used as a Journey expression it returns a value of type Integer: 42 when used with the following context:
%{"start_time" => 123456789}
card MyCard do
my_var = time_elapsed(start_time)
# When used in a piece of text prefix it with an `@`
my_var = "@time_elapsed(start_time)"
end

Contact field accessors
ENUM custom fields: .value and .display
Custom contact fields of type ENUM expose two extra accessors so you don't need to
map the raw value to its label by hand. The bare reference stays backwards compatible
(it coerces to the stored value), while .value and .display give you explicit access:
| Accessor | Returns |
|---|---|
@contact.field | the raw stored value (string coercion, unchanged) |
@contact.field.value | the raw stored value |
@contact.field.display | the option's configured display label |
card MyCard do
# @contact.appointment_type -> "IN_PERSON" (raw value)
# @contact.appointment_type.value -> "IN_PERSON"
# @contact.appointment_type.display -> "In person" (configured label)
text("Appointment type: @contact.appointment_type.display")
end
Use .value (or the bare reference) in conditions where you compare against the stored
value, and .display in text() where you want the human-readable form.
DATE fields are plain ISO 8601 timestamps — compare them bare and format them for
display with @datevalue(...):
card MyCard do
# Compare directly (no accessor needed):
# contact.appointment_at > datetime_add(now(), -12, "h")
text("Your appointment is on @datevalue(\"@contact.appointment_at\", \"%d %b %Y %H:%M\")")
end
