I am developing a project with ros_msft_mrtk and would like to send simple messages via Ros2 to Unity or then to the Hololens2. Unfortunately, I don't understand Ros2's communication. I use the SubscriptionExample, added it to a GameObject and now want to display sented messages in a text field in Unity. That was my attempt:enter image description here

I get the error: Cannot implicitly convert type 'std_msgs.msg.String' to 'string'. How can I store a received std_msgs.msg.String in a string to output it in Unity and later on the HoloLens?

From the tutorial that you linked. The string value that you want is in the data field of the message msg.Data not the message named std_msgs/String

You can see the message definition here.
