Hey People,
I’m just working with a basic workflow in SharePoint Designer 2013 and trying to fetch the Enterprise Keywords column from the current item. But I keep getting an error:
System.InvalidCastException: The value ‘d/results(0)/Enterprise_x0020_Keywords’ cannot be read as type ‘String’. at Microsoft.Activities.GetDynamicValueProperty`1.CheckedRead(String propertyName, DynamicItem value) at Microsoft.Activities.GetDynamicValueProperty`1.Execute(CodeActivityContext context) at System.Activities.CodeActivity`1.InternalExecute(ActivityInstance instance, ActivityExecutor executor, BookmarkManager bookmarkManager) at System.Activities.Runtime.ActivityExecutor.ExecuteActivityWorkItem.ExecuteBody(ActivityExecutor executor, BookmarkManager
Currently I’m trying to assign it to a dictionary variable and I’ve also tried a string, with the same results.
Anyone know how we’re supposed to handle Enterprise Keywords in workflow? Note: I don’t really want to drop into Visual Studio…
Thanks Craig
If you want to just get the label of the managed metadata term you can do some string manipulation on the columname_0 field as seen in the screenshot below.
