How do I get contents from a Firestore Array in Unity?

I'm struggling to make sense of Firestore arrays in Unity/C#. 

DocumentSnapshot snap = task.Result;
IDictionary<string, object> dict = snap.ToDictionary();
object questData = dict["questData"];

How do I say results = dict["questData"][0].results?

enter image description here

enter image description here

Debugger shows questData as object I can't figure out how to say: object[] questData = dict["questData"]

It comes in from Firestore as an object but it's really an array.

i dont see if its array or list oe IEnumerable..

but you could use that to unbox object:

var x =dict["quesData"] as object[] or List<object>

and following the type you apply the same schema.

if collection (ict["questData"]) is dictionary you could apply that:

foreach (KeyValuePair<string, object> pair in dict["questData"])
{
    Console.WriteLine("{0}: {1}", pair.Key, pair.Value);
}

to find the other keys, i dont see if key is string, so object should does the job in case...

so you could write too: var x =dict["quesData"] as Dictionary<string, object>
