In this example, we explain how to retrieve the name of the browser currently used during execution using the **Get Browser Name** action.

**Action**: Get Browser Name

* **Input Value**: N/A
  * The **Get Browser Name** action does not require any input value. It fetches the name of the browser is used at runtime (e.g., Chrome).
* **Output Value**: {Name}
  * The retrieved browser name (e.g., Chrome) is stores in this **{Name}** dynamic variable
  * If a second output variable is provided, the action returns the status as True/False:
    * **True**: If the browser name retrieved successfully.
    * **False**: If the browser name is not retrieved successfully.
