# Drop Object

This is a pre-built Action located under the captured element. The functionality of this action in Avo Assure is to drop the specified captured element at the target location within the application. The result is stored in the given dynamic variable for further use during test execution.

{% hint style="info" %}
**Note**: To perform a drop action, a **Drag Object** action must be executed first. Without the drag action, the drop cannot be completed.
{% endhint %}

## Syntax

**Input Value**: `<time in sec>(Optional)`

| Argument                            | Description                                                           |
| ----------------------------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| <p>\<time in sec><br>(Optional)</p> | Defines the wait time (in seconds) before performing the drop action. |

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

| Argument                                                    | Description                                                       |
| ----------------------------------------------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------- |
| \<Dynamic Variable>(Optional);\<Dynamic Variable>(Optional) | Both dynamic variable stores the status as **True** or **False**. |

### **Example: Performing a Drop Action on a Target Location**

In this example, we are explaining how to drop a previously dragged object onto a designated target within the application.

* **Action**: Drop Object
* **Input Value**: 3
  * The action accepts an optional input value (**3**). Which specifies the number of seconds to wait before performing the drop operation. After the wait time completes, the action drops the dragged object onto the defined target location.
* **Output Value**: {Status}
  * The drop action result is stored in the **{Status}** dynamic variable with the following possible values:
    * **True**: If the action successfully drops the object onto the target location.
    * **False**: If the action does not drop the object onto the target location.
* **Logical Explanation**: The **Drop Object** action reads wait time from the **Input Value** column (**3**). After completing the wait period, the action identifies the target location in the application under test and performs the drop operation for the object previously dragged. The execution result (**True**) is stored in the **{Status}** variable.

## 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/common-web-operations/drop-object.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.
