Error with Web Component: toYailDictionary Runtime Error

Hello,
I am currently building a simple translator app and I'm trying to integrate the Google Translate API (v3). However, i keep encountering the following runtime error:
"Runtime Error: unable to invoke method 'toYailDictionary' in object od type string"

Steps i've taken:

  1. i set up the web component and configured the URL
  2. added authorization in the headers using Bearer Token
  3. i structured the body of the POST request with a dictionary

Issue: Even though i pass a dictionary as the body, the app on my Iphone shows the above runtime error.

What is my mistake? Are there any specific limitations wth the Web Component that i should be aware of?

Thank you for your help!!!

Several things:

You did not check response code correctly

You failed to JSON Decode the response content brfore feeding it to a dictionary block.

iOS dictionary pair support is greyed out at

(though it might not apply to your code)

What version number do you see in the companion? That function should be in the current App Store version 2.64.5.
