KeyValuePair connector methods

The Keyvalue pair connector methods perform various actions on key value pairs. In an automation flow, the methods are connected with other methods and components. To use the methods, you must first expose them.

Add

Adds a keyvalue pair.

To provide inputs to the parameters, see Configure port properties.

IgnoreDuplicates	If the value is True, the method ignores a duplicate key. Else, if the value is False, the method returns an error message.	Data in	Boolean	None	No

Clear

Clears all keyvalue pairs.

ContainsKey

Returns True if the specified key exists, else, returns False.

To provide inputs to the parameters, see Configure port properties.

To provide inputs to the parameters, see Configure port properties.

表 : 5. Delete method parameters

Parameter	Description	Data port type	Data type	Default value	Mandatory?
Key	Name of the key.	Data in	String	None	Yes

GetItem

Returns the value of the specified key.

To provide inputs to the parameters, see Configure port properties.

表 : 6. GetItem method parameters

Parameter	Description	Data port type	Data type	Default value	Mandatory?
Key	Name of the key.	Data in	String	None	Yes
Return	Returns the value of the key.	Data out	Object	Not applicable	Not applicable

GetItems

Returns the values of multiple keys. You must first configure the keys in the method.

To configure, do the following steps.

1. Click the method settings icon ().
2. Click the add keys icon ().
3. Enter the key name.
4. Update the key data type from the list.
5. Repeat the steps to set multiple key names.
6. Click OK.

   A Data out port is created with each key name you set.

Parameter	Description	Data port type	Data type	Default value	Mandatory?
Key	Returns the value of the key.	Data out	Object	Not applicable	Not applicable

GetItemsByIndex

Returns the key values based on their index. You must first configure the indexes in the method.

To configure, do the following steps.

1. Click the method settings icon ().
2. Click the add indexes icon ().
3. Enter the key index.
4. Update the key data type from the list.
5. Repeat the steps to set multiple key indexes.
6. Click OK.

   A Data out port is created with each key index you set.

表 : 8. GetItemsByIndex method parameters

Parameter	Description	Data port type	Data type	Default value	Mandatory?
Key index	Returns the value of the key.	Data out	Object	Not applicable	Not applicable

ParseFromText

Parses the specified text into key value pairs. It can create multiple keyvalue pairs.

To provide inputs to the parameters, see Configure port properties.

表 : 9. ParseFromText method parameters

Parameter	Description	Data port type	Data type	Default value	Mandatory?
Text	Text comprising the keys and values that the method parses.	Data in	String	None	Yes
ItemSeparator	Separator between two keyvalue pairs.	Data in	String	None	Yes
KeyValueSeparator	Separator between the key and its value.	Data in	String	None	Yes
ClearBeforeParse	If True, clears any existing keyvalue pair before parsing.	Data in	Boolean	None	No

Reverse

Reverses the key indexes.

ヒント:

After executing the method, you can see the output by executing the GetItemsByIndex method.

SetData

Need information.

SetItem

Updates the value of a key.

To provide inputs to the parameters, see Configure port properties.

Value	Updated value of the key.	Data in	Object	None	Yes

ヒント:

Test the updated value by executing the GetItemsByIndex method.

SetItems

Updates the values of the specified keys. You must first configure the keys in the method.

To configure the keys, do the following steps.
