# List Does Not Contain

**Introduction**

The "List Does Not Contain" step checks whether a list variable does not contain a specified item and returns `Yes` if the item is not found. This step is useful for verifying the absence of an element within a list.

**Configuration**

* **Variable**: The list variable to be checked. The items in the list must support equality checks.
* **Value**: The item to ensure is not present in the list.

**Outputs**

* **Result**: A boolean value (`Yes` or `No`) indicating whether the specified item is absent from the list.
