Set Keys and Values¶

Description¶

This operation modifies values associated with one or more keys. If the specified keys do not exist, new key-value pairs are created.

Method¶

Backendless.Hive(hiveName).KeyValueStore().multiSet(keyValues);

where:

Argument	Description
`hiveName`	Name of a hive where the operation is performed. String value.
`keyValues`	An object containing a mapping of keys and the corresponding values to be used as key-value pairs by the operation.

Return Value¶

None.

Example¶

The example below modifies values associated with the keys "Japan" and "USA". In case the keys do not exist, new key-value pairs are created.

// Creating the key-value map
Map<String, String> keyValues = new HashMap<>();
keyValues.put("Japan", "The land of the rising sun");
keyValues.put("USA", "The country of freedom");

// Invoking the multiSet method
Backendless.Hive("countries").KeyValueStore().multiSet(keyValues);

where:

Argument	Description
`"countries"`	Name of a hive where the operation is performed.
`"Japan","USA"`	Keys to update the values of. If the keys do not exist, new key-value pairs are created.
`"The land of the rising sun","The country of freedom"`	Values to assign to the keys.

Codeless Reference¶

keyvalue_api_set_keys_and_values

where:

Argument	Description
`hive name`	Name of a hive where the operation is performed.
`keys/values object`	An object containing key names and corresponding values.

Consider the following Key Value storage:

sample-key-value

The following example sets key-value pairs:

keyvalue_api_example_set_keys_and_values

The key-value storage will look as shown below after the Codeless logic runs:
