Question
Hashmap as parameter in Function throwing error
Here's how can we define a function with hashmap as parameter in JAVA
public static void mapEDPIBeaconFields(String page, int ind, Map<String, Object> map)
{
System.out.println("\nmapEDPIBeaconFields: "+map.get("id").toString());
System.out.println("\nmapEDPIBeaconFields: "+page);
System.out.println("\nmapEDPIBeaconFields: "+ind);
}
I tried to create a function in Pega , it is throwing error. Attached the screenshot of the error and the Util library used.

Satish,
In addition to the suggestions Ravi gave, I might ask why you're taking this approach to begin with. What is the business problem you are trying to solve with this function? Is there a guardrails compliant way to do what you are trying to do? Usually the answer is yes and then you can leverage all of the tools and power of the Pega 7 platform.
Thanks,
Mike
Hello Satish,
Did you check Pega OOTB functions created and used on Hashmap? If not, pls check the following functions and build the logic accordingly.
pyGetPageAsHashMap, pyGetPropertyAsHashMap, pygetHashMapForPageList

This is to parse a json response from an authenticated REST service which is not OOTB for Pega as Pega supports only 3 types of authentication but Janus authentication is not ootb. We're using that to get JSON and to parse json we need the HashMap.
