How to pass key & value array into macro?

Just checking if there is a smart way of passing "key" and "value" (ideally key-value array) into a macro

Ideally i'm looking for

## mykeyValueArray={key1:value1, key2:value2} 
[my_macro(1)]
args = mykeyValueArray
definition = index=abc sourcetype=xyz  $mykeyValueArray$

or atleast something like below as a baby-step

[my_macro(2)]
args = mykey,myvalue
definition = index=abc sourcetype=xyz  $mykey$=$myvalue$

we need to dynamically pass keys & values into the macro
