### **Example: Verifying and Counting Text Occurrences in a Table**

In this example, we explain how to verify whether a specific text exists within a captured table and count how many times it appears.

* **Action**: VerifyTextExist
* **Input Value**: Home Improvement Loan
  * This action requires the exact text (**Home Improvement Loan**) that needs to be searched within the table.
* **Output Value**: {Count}
  * The total number of occurrences of the specified text found in the table (6) is stored in the **{Count}** dynamic variable.
  * If a second output variable is provided, the action returns the status as **True** or **False**:
    * **True**: If the text is found in the table and its occurrences are counted successfully.
    * **False**: If the text is not found in the table.
* **Logical Explanation**: The **verifyTextExist** action reads the expected text from the **Input Value** column (**Home Improvement Loan**). It scans through the captured table, identifies all cells containing the specified text, counts the total number of occurrences. The result is stores (6) in the **{Count}** variable.
