Hi,

The following topic will help you.

[FirstAid] Migration to Windows target Framework - Missing Microsoft.Activities.Extensions package - Dictionary Activities

Introduction When changing from Windows Legacy to Windows target framework the package: Microsoft.Activities.Extensions is no longer available. This package offered a few Activities for working with Dictionaries. [grafik] Issue As the package is not available, so also the offered activities are no longer available and alternate handling is needed. Workaround Instead of using the activities from above, the same result can be achieved with the following options, mostly done on .Net API base. …

1. Create a Dictionary Variable: First, create a variable of type Dictionary<TKey, TValue>, where TKey is the type of your keys (e.g., String) and TValue is the type of your values (e.g., String).

2. Use the Assign Activity: To add a key-value pair to the dictionary, use the Assign activity. In the “To” field, specify the dictionary variable you created. In the “Value” field, assign a new key-value pair to the dictionary using the following syntax:

Please note that there might be custom packages or activities available on UiPath Go! or other sources that provide specialized dictionary manipulation activities, but these are not part of the standard UiPath activities package.

Add to dictionary not available on cross platform processes

Hello everyone, I want to create a process where I would need to use a dictionary in order to take certain values but I cannot find the add to dictionary activity in a cross platform process. Does anyone know how can I find it? If it isn’t available what else can I use? Thank you!

Hope this helps

Please let me know the steps
here is my flow:

[Palaniyappan (Forum Leader)]

U can get those columns alone as a datatble like this in a assign activity

dt_new = dt.DefaultView.ToTable(False, “ColumnA”, “ColumnB”)

@office_work

if you need only two columns to be saved then use filter datatable activity…and give the columns you need

HI,

@office_work

i am reading an excel and want to store all the value of column A and column B into a data table.

Is your requirement that you need to create Dictionary from datatable? If so, the following will work.

Use ForEachRow activiy or use the following LINQ

dt.AsEnumerable.ToDictionary(Function(r) r("ColumnA").ToString,Function(r) r("ColumnB").ToString)
