Get title on title ui element

Function: Get title on title UI element

This action helps you retrieve the text that is currently displayed as the title of a specific UI element on your application's layout. It's useful when you need to capture the text from a title component to use it elsewhere in your application, such as in a notification, another display field, or for comparison.

Input

• UI element (Required): This is the specific "Title" type UI element from which you want to extract the title text. You must select an existing title UI element from your application's design.

Output

• Result (Text): The title text retrieved from the selected UI element. This text will be stored in a variable. You can choose a name for this variable (e.g., MyPageTitle), or it will be stored in a default variable named TEXT if you don't specify one.
