Composite Data Types in Python Toolbox

Hello,

Had a parameter that can be a feature class or a raster. If it is a raster I would like it to be vectorized. Is there a way to get that information from the parameter and then just do a simple if statement to send it to be vectorized or to move on if it already is?

habitat = arcpy.Parameter(
    name='Habitat',
    displayName='Habitat Raster',
    datatype=['GPRasterLayer', 'GPFeatureLayer'],
    direction='Input',
    parameterType='Required')

Should have looked a little longer:

desc = arcpy.da.Describe(FC or Raster)

if desc['dataType'] == 'RasterDataset':
    ...
elif desc['dataType'] == 'FeatureClass':
    ...
