# Boolean
A Boolean variable, is a variable of logical type whose value can be True or False. Most often such a variable is used to determine whether an object has a property or not. As well as to set this property through animations.
To set a variable of this type:
* In the components tab of the object, select Variables
* Create a new variable Select Boolean type
* Set the initial value of the variable. A toggle on corresponds to a True value, a toggle off corresponds to a False value.
To toggle the value of a variable, add it to the timeline using the object selection to which it is assigned.
Or create a local variable in the animation and use it.

## 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://help.manu.co/learn/manual/variables/boolean.md?ask=&goal=
```
`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.
