# Convert to Lowercase

This is a pre-built Action located under the **@Generic Element**. The functionality of this Action in Avo Assure is to change the given text to lowercase letters. The converted text is stored in a dynamic variable.

## **Syntax**

**Input Value**: `<input string>`&#x20;

| Argument                             | Description                                                 |
| ------------------------------------ | ----------------------------------------------------------- |
| <p>\<input string><br>(Required)</p> | Provide the string that needs to be converted to lowercase. |

**Output Value**: `<Dynamic Variable>;<Dynamic Variable>(Optional)`&#x20;

| Argument                                  | Description                                                                                            |
| ----------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
| <p>\<Dynamic Variable><br>(Required)</p>  | This dynamic variable holds the converted lowercase string.                                            |
| <p>\<Dynamic Variable><br>(Optional) </p> | <p>This dynamic variable stores the status as <strong>True</strong><br> or <strong>False</strong>.</p> |

### **Example: Converting a String to Lowercase**

In this example, we explain how to convert a given string into lowercase letters.

* **Action**: Convert to Lower Case
* **Input Value**: ALICE JOHNSON
  * This specifies the string (**ALICE JOHNSON**) that need to convert into lowercase.
* **Output Value**: {Lowercase string}
  * The converted string (alice johnson) is stored in this **{Lowercase string}** dynamic variable for further use.
  * If the second output variable is defined, it stores the operation status with the following possible values:
    * **True**: If the conversion is successful.
    * **False**: If the conversion fails due to invalid input.
* **Logical Explanation**: The **Convert to Lower Case** action fetches the value from the **Input Value** column (**ALICE JOHNSON**) and converts it into lowercase (alice johnson). The converted string is then stored in the **{Lowercase string}** variable.
