Hi @Adhavan,

Robot Framework uses python for conditional evaluation, so the same as you would in python.

Here are some examples (you can just save this as is to a .robot file and run it to see the results)

*** Variables ***
@{Fruits} 			Strawberry 	Durian 	Apple 	Guava 	Blueberry 	Papaya 	Tomato 	Avocado 	Orange
&{fruitstand} 	Strawberry=65 	Durian=13 	Apple=15 	Guava=5 	Blueberry=100 	Papaya=8 	Tomato=88 	Avocado=99 	Orange=44
&{cars} 				Citroën=2 	Peugeot=0 	Daihatsu=1 	Toyota=1 	Mazda=2 	Honda=1
&{drinks} 			Coffee=White 	Tea=Green		Beer=Yellow 	Wine=Red
@{listdic} 			&{fruitstand} 	&{cars} 	&{drinks}

*** Test Cases ***
Item in List
	${mybool}= 	Evaluate    "Avocado" in ${Fruits}
	IF 	"Tomato" in ${Fruits}
		Log 	Fresh Tomato on toast
	END

Key in Dictonary
	${mybool}= 	Evaluate    "Blueberry" in ${fruitstand}

Value in Dictonary
	${mybool}= 	Evaluate    "13" in ${fruitstand}.values()
	${mybool}= 	Evaluate    "69" in ${fruitstand}.values()

Dictonary in List
	${mybool}= 	Evaluate    ${drinks} in ${listdic}

Hope that helps,

Dave.

Hi @Adhavan,

I forgot to mention

If you are using Requests Library it handles the conversion of the json string data into dictionary/list objects and back again for you

Otherwise there is jsonlibrary for converting json files / strings into dictionary/list objects and back again

Alternatively you can use the native json python module in robot framework as shown in the accepted answer in this stackoverflow thread

Or the Robocorp json library

So many options :grin:

Dave.
