Property is not assignable to string index in interface [duplicate]

by

You can use an intersection of two interfaces:

interface Api<T> {
    [key: string]: T[];  
}

type ApiType<T> = Api<T> & {
    meta: Meta;
}

declare let x: ApiType<string>;

let a = x.meta // type of `a` is `Meta`
let b = x["meta"]; // type of `b` is `Meta`

let p = x["someotherindex"] // type of `p` is `string[]`
let q = x.someotherindex // type of `q` is `string[]`
