# maci.tomlloadstr

### loading a string

Loads toml string data, and returns a dictionary.

{% hint style="info" %}
maci.tomlloadstr  ->  dict\[str, Any]
{% endhint %}

*Basic Example of loading a toml string using default positional parameter*

```python
data = maci.tomlloadstr('key1 = "value1" \nkey2 = "value2"')
```

In this example, we simply load toml data from a string using the tomlloadstr function and pass a string as an argument to the function to load the toml data, and assign the returned data to a variable.
