[erlang-questions] How to access a Map returned by jiffy:decode()

[Robert Raschke]

That's not a map. It's a tuple of one element, which is a list of
two-tuples ({key, value}). Such a list is often called a proplist.

You could get your results like this:
{Tx} = jiffy:decode...
proplists:get_value(<<"foo">>, Tx)
