# Get node name by index

This is a pre-built action available under the **Captured Tree Element** from the **Desktop Application**. The functionality of this action in Avo Assure is to fetch the node's name based on the index provided in the input, and save the result in dynamic variable.

### Syntax

**Input Value:** `<Path (Separated by ;)>`

| Argument                                         | Description                                                                                                                                                    |
| ------------------------------------------------ | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| <p>\<Path (Separated by ;)></p><p>(Required)</p> | <p>Specify the index whare the node is available in tree element</p><p><strong>Note: Each value can separated by semicolon</strong> <strong>( ; )</strong></p> |

**Output Value:**

<table><thead><tr><th valign="top">Argument</th><th valign="top">Description</th></tr></thead><tbody><tr><td valign="top"><p>&#x3C;Dynamic Variable></p><p>(Required)</p></td><td valign="top">This dynamic variable holds the retrieved node name.</td></tr><tr><td valign="top"><p>&#x3C;Dynamic Variable></p><p>(Optional)</p></td><td valign="top">This dynamic variable holds the status of the action as <strong>True</strong> or <strong>False</strong>.</td></tr></tbody></table>

**Example:**

**Retrieves a node’s name from a tree element based on the specified index**

The **Get node name by index** action takes the value from the Input Value column (e.g., **1;2;3;4**) and fetches the node name located at the index position within the captured tree element. The fetched node name is stored in the **{Node Name}** variable (e.g., **Cursors** )

## 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/tree/get-node-name-by-index.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.
