# Use the Max component

# Use the Max component {#ariaid-title1}

Release version: Australia  
Updated March 12, 2026  
![](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/portal-asset/ico-clock) 1 minute to read  
Take two integers and find which one is larger as part of an automation Workflow by using the Max component in RPA Desktop Design Studio.

## Before you begin

Role required: none

## About this task

You can configure the properties for the Max component. For more information about
these properties, see [Properties of the Math components](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/Y_sVqPA0RsVqdFzQqrFdfA "Learn about the properties of the Math components in RPA Desktop Design Studio.").

## Procedure

1. In the Toolbox pane, navigate to UtilitiesMath.
2. Drag the Max component to the Design surface.
3. To configure the input fields, see [Configure port properties](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/o6fErdzBCUqYUWlLG1ZZzQ "Configure how data is passed to the input fields of a component or method in RPA Desktop Design Studio.").
4. Connect the data and control ports of the Max component to the corresponding ports of the other components as described in the following table.  
   {#use-utilities-math-max__table_jnw_jn1_krb__entry__3}

   | Port type | Purpose of connection | Mandatory? |
   |-|-|-|
   | Data In (Value1) | Takes the first of the two integers that the method compares from a previously executed component. | Yes |
   | Data In (Value2) | Takes the last of the two integers that the method compares from a previously executed component. | Yes |
   | Data Out (Return) | Returns the larger of the two integers entered and passes to the next component. | Yes. To preview the data, right-click the Return field and click Preview Data. |
   | Control In | Connects to the Control Out port of one or more components. | Yes |
   | Control Out | Connects to the Control In port of any other component. | No. Connecting the port is optional. |
