# Get Input Help

This is a pre-built action available under the **Captured Textbox Element** from the **SAP GUI Application**. The functionality of this action in Avo Assure is to fetch the input help (such as suggestions or list options) for a textbox or input and save the result in the dynamic variable.

### **Syntax**

**Input Value:** `<(optional)Row;Column>`

{% hint style="warning" %}
***Note:** If no row and column are specified in the Input Value, the action will retrieve the default or first input help entry available for the element.*
{% endhint %}

| Argument               | Description                                                                                                |
| ---------------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| <(optional)Row;Column> | Enter the row and column number of the input help entry to be retrieved (if specific position is required) |

**Output Value**

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

## 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/sap/textbox-operations/get-input-help.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.
