How can I detect the pressed key?
Please help me! The output says " bad argument #2 to '?' (string expected, got Object) "
local plr = game:GetService("Players")
local mouse = plr:GetMouse()
local text = script.Parent.TextLabel
mouse.KeyDown:connect(function(key)
text.Text = key
end

This is because the Mouse.KeyDown event is deprecated. Instead, use the UserInputService.
local text = script.Parent.TextLabel
game:GetService("UserInputService").InputBegan:Connect(function(input, chatting)
text.Text = tostring(input.KeyCode)
end)

That's because you forgot the LocalPlayer after game:GetService("Players")
local plr = game:GetService("Players").LocalPlayer --here
local mouse = plr:GetMouse()
local text = script.Parent.TextLabel
mouse.KeyDown:Connect(function(key) --use uppercase Connect
text.Text = key
end
Although as incapaz mentioned, you should use UserInputService instead.
