Thanks Dan and Sanford. Is there any solution to achieve this use case in Marketo.


You must use a webhook to do the comparison.

I’m not Josh, so take this for what it’s worth. Field A is essentially a “history” field. So all you need is a conditional CDV flow step that says:

if Field A not contains {{Field B}}

Field A value = {{Field A}}, {{Field B}}

else

do nothing.

Except you can't compare to a token by its token name, ​only by value.

Of course. I knew I should have build this out using an actual flow. The "choices" act as mini smart lists - and as we all know, you can't use tokens in smart lists. Good catch, Sandy.
