Goto

Sends task flow to the label indicated. Used to direct the task to jump to a labeled section defined by the Label action. Make the Goto dependent on an If action or some other condition to avoid an endless loop between Goto and the Label. Excessive use of Goto can create tasks that are difficult or impossible to debug. If your task requires more than a few Goto steps it is recommended to consider re-structuring with Sub-tasks (using the Start Task action).
