assign value at specific list index in robot framework

Question

I have a list:

@{IFUP}  10  20

I want to modify only one of those values, e.g:

${IFUP}[${idx}]=  Set Variable  30

where $idx is 0

This produces No keyword with name ''${IFUP}[${idx}]='. Same happens with direct ${IFUP}[0] assignment.

RobotFramwork version is 3.1 (list syntax is a bit different).

I would be happy with a variable variable solution like: ${IFUP_${idx}}= but this produces the same error.

Suggestions?

You can use the 'Set List Value' keyword from Collections library.

In your case, it should be

Set List Value  ${IFUP}    0    30

Please check below code:

List_at_place_change
    @{IFUP}    Create List    10    20
    Log    ${IFUP[0]}
    Set List Value    ${IFUP}    0    30
    Log    ${IFUP}

Hi, this just creates a new variable named "IFUP[0]" which is different from the original. If you use "Log ${IFUP}" you will get the original values, 10 20.
