Python RPA Script - getting name of selected object

I am using the keyboard and mouse packages to select a window in a third party application which accepts data entry. I would like to handle the exception of the application not accepting the selection of a text box or form so the script doesn't go rogue when something goes wrong.

See in all caps portion, is there a package or method that can handle this?

example:

Keyboard.press_and_release('tab')

time.sleep(1.5)

#edit trip

keyboard.press_and_release('alt+e')

time.sleep(.25)

keyboard.press_and_release('alt+3')

#click tab 3



time.sleep(.5)

#tab to the auth window

keyboard.press_and_release('tab')

time.sleep(.2)

keyboard.press_and_release('tab')

time.sleep(.2)

keyboard.press_and_release('tab')

RIGHT HERE I WOULD LIKE TO VERIFY THAT THE TEXT BOX IS ACTIVE WITHIN THE APP
SOMETHING LIKE Window.getactiveobject() or get highlighted area?

time.sleep(.4)

#delete any misc numbers in the auth text

keyboard.press_and_release('delete')

keyboard.write(current_Auth)
