¶ About
The FindBest action returns the name or content of the column with the "best" value, based on user-defined criteria. This is especially useful when working with multi-class classification models where each class is scored in a separate column, and you need to determine the winning class.
¶ Input Example
| C1 | C2 | C3 | C4 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 14 | 5 | 643 | 320 |

- When using
content of "Label" columns, make sure your label columns match in order and number with the columns you’re inspecting.- Use
largest in absolute valueif your data contains both positive and negative values and you only care about the magnitude.- This action is ideal when post-processing classification model outputs or rule-based decisions.
