### Example: Switching Between Browser Windows

In this example, we explain how to switch the browser focus to a different window using the **Switch to Different Window** action.

* **Action**: Switch to Different Window
* **Input Value**: 2
  * The input value (**2**) specifies the browser window number to which the focus should be switched (for example, from the Home tab to the Admin tab).
* **Output Value**: {Window}
  * The result of the switch window operation is stored in this **{Window}** dynamic variable with the following possible values:
    * **True**: Indicates that the browser successfully switched to the specified window.
    * **False**: Indicates that the window switch failed.
* **Logical Explanation**: The **Switch to Different Window** action takes the value from the **Input Value** column (**2**) and changes the active browser context to the specified window. If the operation is successful, the result is stored in the **{Window}** variable as true.
