Not able to get a string array from the coded workflow

[Vishal_Kalra]

Hi,
I have seen example wherein simple data types/ tuple were returned from coded workflow. Is it not possible to return string array? I tried POC for it but do not get the value. PFA the files for the same.
Main.xaml (7.6 KB)
SampleWorkflow.cs (1.1 KB)

if you have an array, e.g. [“abc”, “def”]

you can use
String.join("," , arrayVariable) (might be dif
to convert it to a string i.e. "abc,def" and return it

then once you have this string use
stringVariable.split(","c)
to convert it back into an array

Invoking arguments into a coded workflow

For now, in the Invoke Workflow activity for Windows projects you will have to manually add the arguments to the list, they are not found automatically. See https://github.com/UiPath/codedautomations-samples/tree/main/Interoperability for a set of examples regarding invoking between workflows and coded workflows. This example in particular defines argu…

If you have just one output argument from coded workflow, you’ll need to refer to it as “Output” in the xaml workflow that invokes it.
