Method¶

Backendless.Hive( hiveName ).KeyValueStore.get( keys ): Promise<object>;

where:

Argument	Description
`hiveName`	Name of a hive where the operation is performed. String value.
`keys`	An array of key names as strings identifying the key-value pairs.

Return Value¶

A JSON object containing the specified keys and the corresponding values. In case the specified keys do not exist, the operation returns an empty JSON object.

Example¶

Consider the following key-value store:

key-value-store

The example below retrieves values for the "USA" and "Japan" key names:

await Backendless.Hive( 'countries' ).KeyValueStore.get( ['USA', 'Japan'] )

where:

Argument	Description
`'countries'`	Name of a hive where the operation is performed.
`['USA', 'Japan']`	Array containing key names to get the corresponding values for.
