# Get Object Status

This is a pre-built Action located under the captured table element. The functionality of this Action in Avo Assure is to retrieve the status of objects such as radio buttons or checkboxes present in a table cell. The result is stored in the given dynamic variable for further use during test execution.

{% hint style="info" %}
For the object, it may retrieve the following statuses:

* **Checked**: if the radio button or checkboxes are already checked
* **Unchecked**: if the radio button or checkboxes are already unchecked
  {% endhint %}

### Example: Retrieving the Status of a Radio Button from a Specific Table Cell

In this example, we explain how to retrieve the status of an object (radio button) located within a particular cell in a table.

* **Action**: Get Object Status
* **Input Value**: 2;5;radiobutton;1
  * The first argument (**2**) specifies the row number.
  * The second argument (**5**) specifies the column number.
  * The third argument (**radiobutton**) specifies the object type to be checked.
  * The fourth argument (**1**) specifies the index of the object within the cell.
* **Output Value**: {StatusResult}
  * The retrieved object status (Selected) is stored in the **{StatusResult}** dynamic variable.
  * If a second output variable is provided, the action returns the execution status as **True** or **False**:
    * **True**: If the object status is retrieved successfully.
    * **False**: If the object status is not retrieved successfully.
* **Logical Explanation**: The **Get Object Status** action reads the values from the **Input Value** column (**2;5;radiobutton;1**). The action identifies the table cell at row 2 and column 5, locates the specified object type (radio button or checkbox), and determines its selection status. The retrieved result (Selected) is stored in the **{StatusResult}** variable.
