# Verify Text IRIS

| <p>\<input value></p><p>(Required)</p> | Specify the input text to matches with expected value of the targeted object |

**Example**

**Verifying the Text of an IRIS Object in the Application**

The **Verify Text IRIS** action takes the value from the Input Value column (e.g., Login) and checks whether the text displayed by the targeted IRIS object matches the expected value. The result of the verification is stored in the **{VerifyText}** variable as **True** (if the text matches) or **False** (if the text does not match).

This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

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

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://docs.avoautomation.com/avo-assure/actions/desktop/iris/common-iris-keywords/verify-text-iris-1.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

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.
