Easiest way to fail pipeline in Data Factory?

Question

I have a data factory pipeline that has an "If Condition" Activity and I want the pipeline to fail on a certain condition. What is the best way to achieve this? There is no fail activity..

They've just added a "Fail Activity" in Data Factory and Synapse Analytics:

It's found in the "General" category in "Activities" in the Data Factory Studio.
