We are sending a HTTP DELETE request from JMeter, but getting syntax error (Error 400 Bad request),
Request url: https://somewebsite.org/Acctid/123?AcctId=123
"AcctId=123" is in Query Parameter.
We have no specific headers except for the Cookie and Accept. No content-encoding.
The same request works perfectly fine from Postman.
Any suggestions what could be wrong with our request?
Best!
We cannot tell you what's wrong without seeing your Postman and JMeter configurations.
If the request works in Postman and doesn't in JMeter you could just record it using JMeter's HTTP(S) Test Script Recorder.
Start JMeter's HTTP(S) Test Script Recorder
Import JMeter's certificate into Postman
Configure Postman to use JMeter as the proxy
Run your request in Postman.
That's it, JMeter should generate proper HTTP Request sampler and HTTP Header Manager and you should be able to replay the request.

I have a delete API http request in Jmeter which is like "serverName/ApplName/api/deleteDataset/{datasetId}"
In the header i have added the below information:
But strangely this api is failing with the below error:
Response code:400
Response message:Bad Request
Please note when i am trying the same API in postmen it is passing without any error. In fact i did not have to pass any header information apart from the access token.
I have tried removing the extra header information(accept,content-type) too from JMeter but that also did not work out.
If your request works fine in Postman the easiest way of replicating it in JMeter would be just recording it using JMeter's HTTP(S) Test Script Recorder
Start the HTTP(S) Test Script Recorder
Import JMeter's certificate into Postman, this way JMeter will be able to intercept and record HTTPS requests
Configure Postman to use JMeter as the proxy so the request to API would go through JMeter
Run your request in Postman
JMeter will generate HTTP Request Sampler and HTTP Header Manager
Correlate bearer token and replace hard-coded value with the appropriate JMeter Variable
You should be able to run the request successfully now
After adding some data from csv file getting 415 status code in jmeter response. I am getting success in postman for same payload which is present in jmeter sample request header. But in jmeter it's showing error. Error is "{"type":"https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7231#section-6.5.13","title":"Unsupported Media Type","status":415,"traceId":"|fc0a70d2-46g24ac7bc010330.fc0a10d3_c9c4264_"}". I configured all the things properly. Please guide me how to fix that issue
You didn't configure at least "one thing" property: HTTP Header Manager. Add it to your Test Plan and set it up to send the same "Content-Type" header as Postman does
Most probably the value should be application/json
Also be aware that if you can successfully execute the request using Postman you can just record the request execution using JMeter's HTTP(S) Test Script Recorder.
I have come from PostMan now using JMeter for stress testing, I have a POST method that works great with PostMan yet I can't seem to get the bearer token authenticating to work on JMeter. I have the same token in PostMan as JMeter (See Screenshots)
Any help or advice is appreciated. See screenshots:
If you're capable of running your request successfully using Postman - you should be able to record it using JMeter's HTTP(S) Test Script Recorder
Start JMeter's HTTP(S) Test Script Recorder
Configure Postman to use JMeter as the proxy
Run your request/test in Postman
JMeter should capture the request and generate corresponding HTTP Request sampler and the HTTP Header Manager

With regards to your setup: the header name should be Authorization and the header value should start with Bearer followed by your token value
The main problem is that JMeter cannot reach the application on your local machine so make sure that the corresponding web server is started.
For using Bearer token, you should create HTTP Header Manager, what you have already added. Then add Key/Name what is used in request, mostly it's Authorization, but we should check it out. Please, provide Headers and Authorization tabs from postman. Then, add Bearer token to Value field.
In my case I should provide one more key/value: Cookie.
I have an API that is running in GET method. It works fine in postman with 200 status code. But when I try to run the API in jmeter it throws 403 forbidden error. I have configured the debug sampler and tried to re-run the test. The debug sampler passed with 200 but http request still fails.
I have tried to correlate but even that fails.
I removed the port number from the HTTP request, it still fails.
I have added the authorization manager and enter the username and password still fails.
HTTP cookie manager and cache manager added in the script.
As per HTTP Status Code 403 description
The HTTP 403 Forbidden client error status response code indicates that the server understood the request but refuses to authorize it.
This status is similar to 401, but in this case, re-authenticating will make no difference. The access is permanently forbidden and tied to the application logic, such as insufficient rights to a resource.
Most probably you have inconsistencies between requests originated from Postman and from JMeter.
There are 2 possible causes:
You failed to configure JMeter's HTTP Request sampler properly. Given your request works fine in Postman you can try to record it using JMeter's HTTP(S) Test Script Recorder
Prepare JMeter for recording. The easiest way is going for JMeter Templates Feature
From JMeter's main menu choose File -> Templates -> Recording and click "Create"
Open HTTP(S) Test Script Recorder and click "Start"
Prepare Postman for recording.
On Settings page set proxy host to 127.0.0.1 and port to 8888
Execute the request in Postman
JMeter will capture the request and store it under the Recording Controller
Postman uses specific Authorization header which cannot be recorded and replayed. Look into Authorization tab for the request and check which one is used, once you figure out - implement the same in JMeter:
Status Code 403 means you are not authorized to access it, so Ensure you are using the right Authorization for your GET call.
Add cookie manager in jmeter http sampler.
403 forbidden error occurred while testing Rest client API on Jmeter , the same API works fine on Postman.What could be the difference between Jmeter and Postman calls?
There is no trace on server logs for the call from Jmeter, whereas when I run the test on Postman, we can see the entry in server.
If you can execute request in Postman it shouldn't be a problem to record it in JMeter.
Prepare JMeter for recording
The fastest and the easiest way to configure JMeter for recording is using JMeter Templates feature. From JMeter's main menu choose File -> Template -> Recording and click "Create"
Start JMeter's HTTP(S) Test Script Recorder: Expand Workbench, choose HTTP(S) Test Script Recorder and click "Start"
Prepare Postman for recording.
You need to configure Postman to use JMeter as a proxy. Postman respects --proxy-server argument where you can specify proxy host and port
C:\Users\your_username_here\AppData\Local\Postman\app-x.x.x\Postman.exe --proxy-server=localhost:8888
Now if you execute a request in Postman JMeter will record it and convert into the relevant HTTP Request sampler
