If you can be sure that values won't have special character "]", you can use below code to get values.

liangl7510 , you can use the below code to convert you input string to a valid list of Map type variable and thn by using simple index function you can get the values based on the keys.

a!localVariables(
  local!input: substitute(
    substitute(
      "[key1:value1,key2:value2,key3:value3,key4:value4]",
      "[",
      ""
    ),
    "]",
    ""
  ),
  local!arrayOfText: split(local!input, ","),
  local!finalMap: a!flatten(
    a!forEach(
      items: local!arrayOfText,
      expression: a!localVariables(
        local!temp: split(fv!item, ":"),
        {
          a!map(key: local!temp[1], Value: local!temp[2])
        }
      )
    )
  ),
  index(
    local!finalMap.Value,
    wherecontains("key1", local!finalMap.key),
    ""
  )
)

Where do you get this value from?

expecting this might be CDT value processed! Instead of working on the value, try working on it at its original CDT form.

Hi liangl7510

I have developed a solution that achieve this dynamically. Below is the code for your reference.

a!localVariables(
local!input: "[key1:value1,key2:value2,key3:value3,key4:value4]",
local!stripText: mid(local!input, 2, len(local!input) - 2),
local!tempString: split(split(local!stripText, ","), ":"),
local!dict: a!map(),
local!updatedMaps: a!forEach(
items: local!tempString,
expression: if(
mod(fv!index, 2) = 0,
{},
a!update(
local!dict,
fv!item,
index(local!tempString, fv!index + 1, null())
)
)
),
local!keys: a!flatten(
a!forEach(
items: local!updatedMaps,
expression: a!keys(fv!item)
)
),
a!update(
a!map(),
local!keys,
a!forEach(
items: local!updatedMaps,
expression: index(fv!item, a!keys(fv!item), null)
)
)
)
