How to check if a variable is true or false within a task

[ענדרעש טאנתאנעללא‎]

So I'm not very good at arrays or variables but what I'm trying to do is run a task but decide what to do when an element or variable of a task is true or false. I'm other words, if the variable throws an error or simply doesn't do its intended task. I don't know how to post what I have but basically I'm using Auto Input to activate a specific text on the screen. How can I make a variable that checks if that Auto Input was successful and if not to do something else. Can I use the "If" part of the variable?

I don't know how to post what I have

To post your profile or task here...  Long press on the profile or task name / ( 3 dot menu with 4.0+ ) export / export "DESCRIPTION" to clipboard (not XML)

Any linked tasks will be exported with the profile they are linked to..

To be able to export, The beginner mode needs to be off and the profile needs to be named by you (Not the Tasker listed name.  Tasker will list your profile with the context name if you have not given it one).

Basically, what I have is a task that launches ARLO (my wireless camera app) with a fresh load, signs in, then selects various menus in the app. Ultimately what I would like to do is have a way for Tasker to know if a "tap" on a specific menu was NOT successful to proceed to another step, otherwise just continue on through the tasks. I imagine the most proficient way is using arrays but I'm not too good with those. Is there a way to use the "IF" with the variables so that is if it fails to succeed it will go to a different task?

If an AutoInput action fails to tap on something it will eventually time out. This should throw an error and set the %err variable.

If you check Continue Task After Error in the action settings, the task will continue running and you can check the %err variable to see if the action succeeded or not.
