# Get Status of IRIS

This is a pre-built action available under the **Captured Checkbox/RadioButton Element** from the **Desktop Application** using the **IRIS method**. The functionality of this action in Avo Assure is to retrieve the status of an IRIS object. The status indicates whether the object is present or active at the time of scraping. Save the result in the dynamic variable.

**Syntax**

Input Value: `<status when object scraped – 0/1>`

| Argument                                      | Description                                                                                     |
| --------------------------------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| \<status when object scraped – 0/1>(Required) | The expected status to verify against the actual object status (0 as selected, 1 as unselected) |

**Output Value**

| Argument                       | Description                                                                                                                      |
| ------------------------------ | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| `<Dynamic Variable>(Optional)` | Holds the status as True if actual object status matches the expected status, or False if it does not match or an error occurred |

**Example**

**Verifies the status of an IRIS object during execution.**

The **Get Status of IRIS** action takes the expected status from the Input Value column and compares it to the actual status of the IRIS object. The result is stored in the **{RadioBtnStatus}** variable as **True** (if the status matches) or **False** (if it does not match).

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.avoautomation.com/avo-assure/actions/desktop/iris/checkbox-radio-button/get-status-of-iris-1.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
