Accessing fields of Account from Map<String, List<Account>>

Hello There,

I have a Map i.e., Map<String, List<Account>> emailAccListMap
I am trying to access the account field from the above Map by saying emailAccListMap.get(String).Name, but this doesn't work.

Can anyone help?

Thanks

It won't work because the values of the map is a list not object. You need to traverse the emailAccListMap.get(String) and then access the name

like 
for (Account  acc : emailAccListMap.get(String)){
acc.name;
}

Try this
  
for (String   s : emailAccListMap.keySet()){

List<Account> accs  = emailAccListMap.get(s);
}

Hi Shravan,


The solution is simple,  If you want to get Account record from the map then using key we can get it. In your code, You mentioned "string" as a key in the Map. So we can get using Accountname. Rest you can understand with the help of code I have provided below.    


for(account a:trigger.new){

List<Account> acc=emailAccListMap.get(a.Name);

}



I hope you find the above solution helpful. If it does, please mark as Best Answer to help others too.
Thanks and Regards,
