# Merge Dictionaries

## Overview

![The Merge Dictionaries Node.](https://926825830-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FKQhJdUBr7YQzfIwmpAZ9%2Fuploads%2Fgit-blob-feb686e9b073b46228fa443f74848cbfe8d4d26b%2Fmergedictionariesupdatedimage.png?alt=media)

The **Merge Dictionaries** **Node** merges two or more **Dictionaries**. It receives the **Dictionaries** to merge (`Dictionary 1`, `Dictionary 2`, etc) and outputs the merged **Dictionary** (`New Dictionary`).

In the case that two or more of the **Dictionaries** to be merged have the same *key*, it takes the *value* from the first **Dictionary** (for instance, if `Dictionary 2` and `Dictionary 3` have the same *key* with different *values*, the `New Dictionary` will take the *value* from `Dictionary 2`).

[**Scope**](https://docs.incari.com/incari-studio/2022.1/overview#scopes): **Project**, **Scene**, **Function**, **Prefab**.
