# Verify text

This is a pre-built action available under the **Captured Textbox Element** from the **Desktop Application**. The functionality of this action in Avo Assure is to verify whether the text present in the specified textbox matches the expected text provided in the input value and save the result in dynamic variable.

### **Syntax**

**Input Value:** `<input text>`

| Argument                              | Description                                                          |
| ------------------------------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| <p>\<input text></p><p>(Required)</p> | Enter the text value to be compared with the actual textbox content. |

**Output Value**

| Argument                                                    | Description                                                      |
| ----------------------------------------------------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------- |
| \<Dynamic Variable>(Optional);\<Dynamic Variable>(Optional) | This dynamic variable holds the result as **True** or **False**. |

**Example**

**Verifies that the text in a textbox matches the expected value.**

The **Verify Text** action takes the expected text **(e.g., Jhon)** from the Input Value column and compares it with the actual text present in the textbox element. The result of this verification is stored in the **{Verify}** variable as **True** ( if the text verified successfully ) or **False** ( if the text is not verified successfull&#x79;**)**

# Agent Instructions
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/textbox/verify-text.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.
