Here’s an example of how “MessageBox” activity works –

In the following example, I am continuing from the “InputBox” example, using the
“MessageBox” activity, I am going to display the output of the activity.

1.       Open and existing solution.

2.       Drag and drop the “MessageBox” activity below the “InputBox”.

3.       Double click on the activity.

a.       Here I am providing the “InputString” as “CredentialOutput(0)” to display
the “Username” provided by the username.

b.       Since the output is the “ListOfString”, we need to mention the (0) to
display the output. The index number starts from (0).

4.       Navigating to the “Title” in the properties and specifying the value as
“Username” .

5.       In this case, I am continuing with the default expiry seconds.

6.       Now, execute the workflow.

Below is the sample output of the activity.
