Hey 👋 Thanks for raising this!

Unfortunately this isn't a bug, more of a feature request as the if option isn't supported on the outputs yet. Think it seems like a good idea though to be able to implement this.

The output object however is pretty unstructured, so wondering how best to implement this. The links part is standard, but there could be other properties in there so how do we best carry the if option into those blocks too, could be tricky.
