# Get Window Details
The **Get Window Details** building block is used to retrieve information about an open application window; such as its title, process name, and window state, during Desktop UI automation.

**Note:** The screenshot on this page uses the **Elegance Design**, introduced in **2025.3**. If you are using an earlier version, your layout may look different.

## Quick start
1. Drag **Get Window Details** onto the canvas.
2. Connect any window detail outputs you need (you can use multiple) to the blocks that will consume them. You can use **multiple outputs** at the same time.
3. Run the flow when it’s ready.

## Building block parameters
### Parameters
- **Block header:** Shows the current title of the **Get Window Details** block. You can rename it by double-clicking the header and typing a new title. The green input connector triggers the block when the flow reaches it, and the green output connector triggers when the window details are retrieved successfully.
- **Title:** Outputs the title of the open application window.
- **Parent process name:** Outputs the process name associated with the open application window.
- **Interaction state:** Outputs the window’s current interaction state.
- **Visual state:** Outputs the window’s current visual state.
- **Is modal:** Outputs **True** if the window is modal, otherwise **False**.
- **Is topmost:** Outputs **True** if the window is the topmost window, otherwise **False**.
- **Can maximize:** Outputs **True** if the window can be maximized, otherwise **False**.
- **Can minimize:** Outputs **True** if the window can be minimized, otherwise **False**.
- **Window:** Specifies which application window to read details from. Typically, this window handle is provided by a **Start Application** or **Use Window** block.
- **Not found:** Triggers if the window cannot be found within the allowed time.
- **Default timeout:** When selected, the block uses the default timeout configured in the flow settings. When not selected, a **Timeout (sec)** field is available so you can set a custom timeout.
