 The following table shows the requests and responses from `http://localhost:1234` using the previous code:

 <xref:Microsoft.AspNetCore.Builder.UseWhenExtensions.UseWhen%2A> also branches the request pipeline based on the result of the given predicate. Unlike with `MapWhen`, this branch is rejoined to the main pipeline if it doesn't short-circuit or contain a terminal middleware:

-In the preceding example, a response of "Hello from main pipeline." is written for all requests. If the request includes a query string variable `branch`, its value is logged before the main pipeline is rejoined.
