Illegal assignment from List<RecordType> to String

I am getting this error on the following code

  
String recordTypeName = [Select Name from RecordType where Id=:theCase.recordTypeId and SObjectType = 'Case' limit 1]];

What am I doing wrong?

Hi Narinder,

Please try this:

String recordTypeName = [Select Name from RecordType where Id=:
theCase.recordTypeId  and SObjectType = 'Case' limit 1][0].name;

Thanks,
Pratik

Hi Narinder,
You are assigning object to string that is why it is giving you an error.
Try this
String recordTypeName =[Select Name from RecordType where Id=:theCase.recordTypeId and SObjectType = 'Case' limit 1].name;

RecordType recordTypeName = [Select Name from RecordType where Id=:theCase.recordTypeId and SObjectType = 'Case' limit 1];

String recTypeName= recordTypeName .Name;
Hi try by doing this because you are assigning whole RecordType record in String.

Please mark this as Best Answer if it helps you and let me know if you are still finding any issue in this.
