What's the best way to do an if statement for status codes?

If a one off, use something like this in an evalstatusCode = `status == '400' ? "Bad Request" : statusCode`

you could have a series of those

I was thinking maybe a lookup too, since status codes are pretty much static

Better, more scalable solution IMO is to use a lookup file (under processing, knowledge)statusCode = `C.Lookup('filename.csv','code').match(status,"return_field")`

you can also use the built-in Lookup function

AND mind the type of field status is! Is it a number or a string? You'll need to match the type

Good point, I'll be sure to check on that

lookup is far easier to maintain than the series of if/or statements.
