Robotframework [Return]

Check AppData Count
${count}=    Get Text    css:mycssLocator
Log    ${count}
[Return]    ${count}

I am trying to get a count from a css locator and then return the text for use in other keywords, however I'm not sure that my syntax is working correctly.

When I try and use ${count} in a subsequent keyword, it isn't found - I understood [Return] as making the return available outside the keyword scope?

You must save the value returned by a keyword if you want to use it later.

For example:

${count}=  check appdata count
log  count: ${count}
