Does this answer your question? [Why is Tkinter Entry's get function returning nothing?](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/10727131/why-is-tkinter-entrys-get-function-returning-nothing) – Collaxd Jan 24 '23 at 15:59

Looking into the source code for customtkinter, it seems like you can bind a customtkinter.StringVar() to the entry's textvariable and call get() on that variable
# instantiate a StringVar to store the entry contents
entry1_var = customtkinter.StringVar(value='Test')
# instantiate the entry widget
entry1 = customtkinter.CTkEntry(
master=frame,
width=220,
placeholder_text='Username',
# bind the variable to this widget
textvariable=entry1_var,
)
entry1.pack()
print(entry1_var.get())
# => Test
However, you should also be able to call get() directly on the CTkEntry widget itself without having to worry about instantiating / binding to textvariable
entry1.get()

You'll have to include more of your code with your question - I'm afraid I can't help much without seeing what you're doing. – JRiggles Jan 24 '23 at 16:25

Were you running into formatting problems? If you want to include a block of code in the body of your question, surround it with three backtick "`" characters \```
