Use for each activity. In properties, set Values as your dictionary and TypeArgument to System.Collections.Generic.KeyValuePair<TKey, TValue>
To display key, use item.Key and for value, item.Value properties

Also I need to get the key of the dictionary for a specific index instead of looping through the dictionary.

HI @Aishwarya_Maggi,

You need to specify the Key and Value data types… Check the screenshot below…

Cool…

For the dictionary key issue, try looking into these two posts… These two gives a good idea on how to loop through the dictionaries…

Let know if it doesn’t help… if it works, please mark the answer as the solution so it will be helpful for others as well :slight_smile:

Thanks

You have put the argument type to dictionary. it should be System.Collections.Generic.KeyValuePair<TKey, TValue>

@Aishwarya_Maggi
To get elements from specific index, Use,
dictTest.ElementAt(0).Key
dictTest.ElementAt(0).Value
