I have the following code:
public void signOn(String id, String password){
usersReference.addListenerForSingleValueEvent(new ValueEventListener() {
@Override
public void onDataChange(DataSnapshot dataSnapshot) {
boolean valid = false;
for(DataSnapshot singleSnapshot : dataSnapshot.getChildren()){
String key = singleSnapshot.getKey();
if (key.equals(id)) {
singleSnapshot.getValue()//THIS LINE THIS LINE
Intent myIntent = new Intent(WelcomePage.this, MainActivity.class);
myIntent.putExtra("key", key);
WelcomePage.this.startActivity(myIntent);
}
}
}
@Override
public void onCancelled(DatabaseError databaseError) {
}
});
}
When I call singleSnapshot.getValue()
, I get {password=passwordExample, username=usernameExample}
as those are the keys and their values in my Realtime Database. How can I access the password value and the username value?

It’s true you can cast it to a Map<String, Object>, as GowthamKK mentioned in his answer but there is by far a simpler solution that would get the value according to the corresponding type. So in code, it would be as simple as:
As you can see I have used now,
<T> getValue(@NonNull Class<T> valueType
) which:
