Tips and Tricks

  • The output of this activity (the Keywords property) is structured as Dictionary<String, String[]> where the dictionary keys are the names of the keyword type and the dictionary values are arrays of the keyword values. Examples how to use the output are:
    • If you like to iterate through all keyword names and their values you might want to use the For each Key Value Pair activity. You can then either iterate through all elements of the array (KeyValuePair.Value) using the For each Loop activity or get the first entry using the VB expression KeyValuePair.Value.First
    • Get the values of a specific keyword type by the keyword type name by writing the name in round parentheses behind the variable you used for the Keywords property. For example, MyKeywords("KEYWORDNAME") Again, you can then either iterate through all elements of the array using the For each Loop activity or get the first entry using the VB expression MyKeywords("KEYWORDNAME").First
