Help with Liquid to show/hide form based on user

I found a couple of blogs that describe this; however, I cannot get it to work. Requirement: show form to users who are associated with an account. If no account record, show some text. I followed this: https://www.engineeredcode.com/blog/dynamics-365-portal-using-liquid-to-create-conditional-entity-forms

{% if user.account != blank %}

{% entityform name: 'Form Name' %}

{% else %}

Some text here

{% endif %}

I used something similar to populate the user and their associated account on another page with a content snippet and it worked. For this I'm used a web template and it shows the form no matter what. I also tried this at the beginning and switching user to contact:

{% assign contact = entities['contact'][request.params.contactid] %}

How can I make this work? Seems I'm missing something.

hi, it seems your code is trying to compare the user.account object to blank

blank in this case doesn't exist, it isn't a liquid object.. so it's just a code syntax mistake

try something like

{% if user.account %} // show entity form.... {% else %} // .... {% endif %}

for more liquid information you can look at this: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/powerapps/maker/portals/liquid/liquid-types
