How can I detect the pressed key?
Please help me! The output says " bad argument #2 to '?' (string expected, got Object) "
1 | local plr = game:GetService("Players") |
2 | local mouse = plr:GetMouse() |
3 | local text = script.Parent.TextLabel |
4 |
5 | mouse.KeyDown:connect(function(key) |
6 | text.Text = key |
7 | end |

This is because the Mouse.KeyDown event is deprecated. Instead, use the UserInputService.
1 | local text = script.Parent.TextLabel |
2 |
3 | game:GetService("UserInputService").InputBegan:Connect(function(input, chatting) |
4 | text.Text = tostring(input.KeyCode) |
5 | end) |

That's because you forgot the LocalPlayer after game:GetService("Players")
1 | local plr = game:GetService("Players").LocalPlayer --here |
2 | local mouse = plr:GetMouse() |
3 | local text = script.Parent.TextLabel |
4 |
5 | mouse.KeyDown:Connect(function(key) --use uppercase Connect |
6 | text.Text = key |
7 | end |
Although as incapaz mentioned, you should use UserInputService instead.
