## Overview

![The Contains Node.](https://1553081948-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FU990HLHWA30dTfELtDUK%2Fuploads%2Fgit-blob-cf18aff81fa4dad83c7464ae207aa85be180972c%2Fcontainsnode20241.png?alt=media)

The **Contains** **Node** receives two **Strings** and checks whether one is a *substring* of the other. It outputs the result as a **Boolean**.

[**Scope**](https://docs.incari.com/incari-studio/overview#scopes): **Project**, **Scene**, **Function**, **Prefab**.
