How to get ACSelect value as string?

[fruktiz32]

Hello, thanks for your great library. I can not get selected option as an String. I'm using this and then trying to print as curr.value, but it says invalid use of non-static member function

AutoConnectSelect& curr = coin->getElement<AutoConnectSelect>("currency");
Serial.println(curr.value);

@fruktiz32 Hello, Thank you for your interest in AutoConnect.
ACSelect retains the provided values as choice strings by a slightly different implementation than other AutoConnectElements. It saves the choice strings as an array with std::vector<String>, so the sketch cannot directly access the value member to get a determined string.
Use the value() function to get the string selected in ACSelect. So change your code to:

Serial.println(curr.value());

Thanks! That worked great!
