Example: Retrieving the Character Length of a Textbox

In this example, we explain how to retrieve the maximum character length (capacity) of a specified textbox using the Get Textbox Length action.

• Action: Get Textbox Length

• Input Value: N/A

• The Get Textbox Length action does not required any input value in the Input Value column. It retrieves the maximum number of characters allowed in the specified textbox.

• Output Value: {Length}

  • The retrieved character length of text box (e.g., 15) is stored in this {Length} dynamic variable.

  • If a second output variable is provided, the action returns the status as True/False:

    • True: If the textbox length is retrieved successfully.

    • False: If the textbox length is not retrieved successfully.

• Logical Explanation: The Get Textbox Length action identifies the target textbox within the application and retrieves its maximum character capacity. The retrieved value is stored in the {Length} variable (e.g., 15).
