# Get Textbox Length

This is a pre-built Action located under the Table captured from the AUT Element. It instructs the Avo Assure Client to get the maximum textbox length defined by the developer of the textbox, which is in the table cell, and save the result in the dynamic variable.

### **Syntax**

**Input Value:**`<Row>;<Col>;<Object Type>;<Index>`

| Argument                            | Description                                  |
| ----------------------------------- | -------------------------------------------- |
| <p>\<Row><br>(Required)</p>         | Row number of the specified table cell       |
| <p>\<Col><br>(Required)</p>         | Column number of the specified table cell    |
| <p>\<Object Type><br>(Required)</p> | Type of object inside the cell (e.g., input) |
| <p>\<Index><br>(Required)</p>       | Element index of the object within the cell  |

{% hint style="warning" %}
**Note:** The above syntax requires the user to specify the row and column of the target table cell, the object type, and the index to identify the correct element within the cell.
{% endhint %}

**Output Value**

| Argument                                 | Description                                                     |
| ---------------------------------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------- |
| <p>\<Dynamic Variable><br>(Required)</p> | This dynamic variable stores the maximum length of the textbox  |
| <p>\<Dynamic Variable><br>(Optional)</p> | This dynamic variable holds the result in **True** or **False** |

**Example**\
\
**Retrieves the maximum length of a textbox located within a specified cell of a table.**

The **Get Textbox Length** action takes the input from the Input Value column (e.g., **2;4;input;1**) and retrieves the maximum character length set for the textbox located in the specified table cell. The result of the action can be stored in the **{Length}** variable and the execution status is saved in the **{Status}** variable with the following possible values:

* **True** – if the character length retrieves successfully
* **False** – if the character length not retried.

## 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/table/get-textbox-length.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.
