Hi there, I am new to tables (using 2019a) and I can't figure this bit out.
I have char arrays in a table:
t(1,'Domain')
ans =
table
Domain
_____________________
{'www.wisebread.com'}
And I want to make a char array using a value from that table to input as a url in a webwrite();
When I use the code
a = 'www.checkthing.com\thingcheck?domain='+t(1,'Domain')+'&secretkey=secretcode'
I get the error
Undefined operator '+' for input arguments of type 'table'.
alternatively if I use strcat I get the error
Inputs must be character vectors, cell arrays of character vectors, or string arrays.
I think this is supposed to be simple but I can't figure out how to use table values in normal operations :(

"When I use the code"
t(1,'Domain')
then your indexing returns a table, because parentheses is used to return a table (i.e. usually a sub-table of the table you are indexing into). This is clearly explained in the documentation:
Just like other container classes (e.g. cell array, string array), if you want to access the content of a table you need to use curly braces (not parentheses):
t{1,'Domain'}
"I think this is supposed to be simple..."
It is simple. For container classes table, cell arrays, and string arrays:
If you want part of the cell array, use parentheses. If you want whatever is in the cell array, use curly braces.

Because t(1,'Domain') is of type table. You need to convert that table output to string or cell. To do that type on Command window
t.Domain(1)
ans =
1×1 cell array
{'www.wisebread.com'}
So basically we extracted the data from table
Now do that strcat step
a = strcat('www.checkthing.com\thingcheck?domain=',t.Domain(1),'&secretkey=secretcode')
