Description:
This step fetches a stored value from a dictionary.
Inputs
- dictionaryVariable – variable to store the dictionary
- dictionaryKey – name of the key
- variableToStore – variable to store the value
Returns
- True – step executed successfully
- False – step failed to execute
Usage:
Example:
Let’s build and execute the “getDictionaryValueDef” example.
- Create a new definition called “getDictionaryValueDef”
- Select the definition and click the “design” button
- Drag and connect the steps as shown in the image above
- Define a variable/global to store the dictionary value and results after execution
- Click the "setDictionaryValue" step to configure its "Settings" properties. Provide a name to the step. Provide a variable/global to store the dictionary value. Provide the key name and key value.
- The “Logging” setting configuration is necessary for documentation and also measures the workflow progress and the percent complete. This is achieved by configuring the step state and percent fields individually, as shown in the images below. Configure the “Logging” using the following properties.
- Click on the "getDictionaryValue" step to configure its "Settings" properties. Provide a name to the step.

- Save the process definition, create a new process instance, and execute. Render the process instance. Click on the process step to view its properties. The step should get the stored value from the dictionary and store the result in an output variable or global.
Definition Sample:
You may download the sample definition(s) from the link here and later import it (drag-drop) to your FlowWright Process Definition (XML file) or Form Definition (HTML file) page.
NOTE: Please verify and complete the process steps for any missing configurations, such as file path references and database connections after import. Then, save the definition to confirm the changes.
