+
+The **`Object.values()`** method returns an array containing the values of an object's own enumerable properties. It's useful when you only need the values, not the keys.
+
+## Syntax
+
+```pseudo
+Object.values(obj)
+```
+
+**Parameters:**
+
+- `obj`: The object whose own enumerable property values needs to be retrieved.
+
+**Return value:**
+
+- An array of the object’s own enumerable property values, ordered by integer keys first (ascending), then string keys in insertion order.
+
+## Example 1: Basic usage of `Object.values()`
+
+In this example, `Object.values()` creates an array of property values from an object:
+
+```js
+const teamA = {
+  firstName: 'Liany',
+  animal: 'cat',
+  age: 30,
+};
+
+const values = Object.values(teamA);
+console.log(values);
+```
+
+This example results in the following output:
+
+```shell
+["Liany", "cat", 30]
+```
+
+## Example 2: Iterating over values
+
+In this example, `Object.values()` is used with a `for...of` loop to iterate through numeric values in an object:
+
+```js
+const scores = { teamLiany: 100, teamWife: 106, teamPrincess: 142 };
+
+for (const value of Object.values(scores)) {
+  console.log(value);
+}
+```
+
+This example results in the following output:
+
+```shell
+100
+106
+142
+```
+
+## Codebyte Example: `Object.values()` with `.filter()` method to detect booleans in a config object
+
+In this example, `Object.values()` is combined with [`.filter()`](https://www.codecademy.com/resources/docs/javascript/arrays/filter) to extract only boolean values from an object:
+
+```codebyte/javascript
+const catObject = {
+  ears: true,
+  nose: "little",
+  beans: true,
+  wings: false,
+  tails: 1,
+}
+
+const booleanValues = Object.values(catObject).filter((value) => typeof value === "boolean");
+
+console.log(booleanValues);
+```
