Robotframework getting array value from dictionary
I am having trouble retrieving a value from a dictionary in my robotframework test.
Right now I'm doing a query using the LDAP3 library that returns the following dictionary:
{'cn': ['Robotframework, U (User8072)'], 'dn': ['user=12345 OU=1,o=company,c=com '], 'uid': ['RobotframeworkU8072']}
What happens here is that the LDAP lib I'm using returns all the values as an array inside a dictionary item which means I can't get the value by using:
Dictionary Should Contain Item|${var}|uid|RobotframeworkU8072
Right now the only way I can get this to work is using the following which passes the test:
${test2}|Get From Dictionary|${test}|uid
${test3}|Get From List|${test2}|0
Should Be Equal|${test3}|RobotframeworkU8072
But is it really that complicated? Isn't there an easier way to do this?

You can use robot frameworks extended variable syntax:
should be equal ${var['uid'][0]} RobotframeworkU8072
