# Get Button Name

This is a pre-built Action located under the captured button element. The functionality of this Action in Avo Assure is to fetch the name of the button. The result is stored in a dynamic variable for further use during test execution.

## Syntax

**Input Value**: `N/A`

<table><thead><tr><th>Argument</th><th>Description</th><th data-hidden></th></tr></thead><tbody><tr><td>N/A</td><td>Not Applicable</td><td></td></tr></tbody></table>

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

<table><thead><tr><th>Argument</th><th>Description</th><th data-hidden></th></tr></thead><tbody><tr><td>&#x3C;Dynamic Variable><br>(Required)</td><td>This dynamic variable stores the button name fetched from AUT.</td><td></td></tr><tr><td>&#x3C;Dynamic Variable><br>(Optional)</td><td>The dynamic variable stores the status as <strong>True</strong> or <strong>False</strong>.</td><td></td></tr></tbody></table>

### Example: Retrieving the Name of a Button from the Application

In this example, we explain how to retrieve the name of a specified button using the **Get Button Name** action.

* **Action**: Get Button Name
* **Input Value**: N/A
  * This action does not required any input value in the **Input Value** column. It automatically identifies and retrieves the name of the target button from the application.
* **Output Value**: {ButtonName}
  * The retrieved button name (e.g., Button name: Log In) is stored in this **{ButtonName}** dynamic variable.
  * If a second output variable is provided, the action returns the status as True/False:
    * **True**: If the button name is fetched successfully.
    * **False**: If the button name is not fetched successfully.
* **Logical Explanation**: The **Get Button Name** action retrieves the name of the specified button from the application and stores it in the **{ButtonName}** variable (e.g., Button name : Log In).

## 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/web/button/get-button-name.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.
