| Object Identifier Name | Singular object name                                                                                      |

| Search by              | The way the element will be searched. It can be by: XPath, Name, ID, Class Name, CSS Selector or Contains |
| XPath                  | The element's xpath                                                                                       |
| Timeout                | The time the robot will spend searching for the element.                                                  |

If the return of the object(Object Identifier Name) is reused in the robot, it will be of type boolean, returning true or false

## Example <a href="#exemplo" id="exemplo"></a>

1. To use the object you need to configure the Open Browser object.
2. With the "Check If Element Exists" object already in the working area, let's select the identifier for the "Open Browser" object, then pass the search information and finally the timeout.
