&lt;p&gt;To pass the dictionary values in rules &amp;amp; process models, you can use&amp;nbsp;&lt;strong&gt;&amp;#39;&lt;a href="https://docs.appian.com/suite/help/21.3/fnc_system_map.html#maps-vs.-dictionaries"&gt;map&lt;/a&gt;&amp;#39;&lt;/strong&gt; data type&lt;strong&gt;.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&amp;#39;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Any type&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;#39;&lt;strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/strong&gt;is also supported for passing dictionaries, but it works only in rules and interfaces &amp;amp; not in process models.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
