Error CS0266: Cannot implicitly convert type 'System.Collections.Generic.IList'

How can I convert or cast Generic.IList?

Encounter this error

Error CS0266 Cannot implicitly convert type 'System.Collections.Generic.IList' to 'PDM.App.DTO.Product.ProductDTO'. An explicit conversion exists (are you missing a cast?)

My Code

public async Task<ProductDTO> EditProduct(ProductDTO Product)
{
  var request = new GetProducts_Activity_Request { };
  var response = await GetProducts_Activity.InvokeAsync(request);
  return response.Products; 
}

Response class look like this 

public class GetProducts_Activity_Response : BaseActivityResponse
{
  public IList<ProductDTO> Products { get; set; }
}

Change your code like this

public async Task<IList<ProductDTO>> EditProduct(ProductDTO Product)
{
  var request = new GetProducts_Activity_Request { };
  var response = await GetProducts_Activity.InvokeAsync(request);
  return response.Products; 
}

You have to change return type to Task<IList<ProductDTO>>
