I cannot modify anything on user.properties to add next line CookieManager.save.cookies=true because I run my scripts from a remote machine in which I don't have access to.
I am able to capture the Cookie using a Regular Expression Extractor from RESPONSE HEADER in Login and save it in a variable 'Cookie_cp'. I tried adding 'Cookie_cp' on HTTP Cookie Manager and also tried adding it on HTTP Header Manager, but JMeter sends the cookie only on REQUEST BODY, but not the REQUEST HEADER.
Another issue is that 'Cookie_cp' is being captured from second step's RESPONSE HEADER and applied to third step, while I need this cookie to be applied only from Login to all other steps.
Any help please?
JMeter sends the cookie(s) in the Cookie header, not in the request body, if you're using View Results Tree listener to inspect the request and it shows the cookie in the "Request Body" tab it's kind of misleading.
In fact JMeter does send the cookie(s) in the Cookie header, you can double check it using a sniffer tool like Wireshark
If you want to send the cookie (or any other header) with all the requests starting from second one you can:
Put these requests under a Simple Controller
Add HTTP Cookie Manager (or HTTP Header Manager) at the same level as these requests
Both Cookie and Header manager obey JMeter Scoping Rules so the header(s) will be added to all Simple Controller's children

I recording login with jmeter. I test with 1 user but jmeter cannot login because of __VerificationToken.
I parsed token with CSS Selector Extractor
I'm sure the token has been moved in the cookie.
But I saw two __VerificationToken. Error return request:
GET data:
Cookie Data:
ASP.NET_SessionId=xxxxxxxxxxxxxx;
__RequestVerificationToken=hYTIRJryyxCBfF7vYlAnkPSM-JB0o- Zp41pqFGk30cLyPAehA22k69VOU3NhY-abVbxuEZDgZHnF-bTFHf_4g1HwkuQ1;
__RequestVerificationToken=${token}
It's impossible to say what's wrong without seeing what parameters and headers does real browser send, however it seems you're doing something weird.
You shouldn't manually create the __RequestVerificationToken cookie as it seems to be properly handled by the HTTP Cookie Manager
Given you have the token value already stored in the HTTP Cookie Manager there is no need to extract it, if you need to send it as the parameter in the HTTP Request sampler you can add the next line to user.properties file:
CookieManager.save.cookies=true
and once you restart JMeter to pick up the property you will be able to access the token value as ${COOKIE___RequestVerificationToken} where required

I am using apache jmeter 5.2.1 with Java 8 to perform the performance test in a JSF application.
I need to send in the header of an HTTP request a parameter called "Cookie" according to the example below:
I've tried several things but none work.
I have already used the HttpHeaderManager resource but apparently the word "Cookie" is a JMeter reserved word so I can't create a parameter in the Header with the name "Cookie".
If I create a parameter in HttpHeaderManager with any name it is appended to the request header, but if I create with the name "Cookie" which is the name I need to use JMeter simply ignore it and do not add it to the request header .
I saw many posts indicating that I used the following code snippet:
CookieManager manager = sampler.getCookieManager();
Cookie cookie = new Cookie("JSESSIONID",vars.get("jSessionId"),"${serveraddress}",false,0);
manager.add(cookie);
I've tested it but it doesn't work either, it returns the following error whenever I try to use it:
I also have an Http Cookie Manager but its value is sent in the request body and not in the header.
I also tried to use the Http Autorization Manager as I saw in some posts but it only works when the login is done at a prompt in the browser.
Can someone help me?
Just add a HTTP Cookie Manager to your Test Plan and it will automatically "manage" cookies for you (the HTTP Request samplers must be in the HTTP Cookie Manager's scope)
You can double check that JMeter sends correct Cookie header using a 3rd-party sniffer tool like Wireshark or Fiddler
If you added the HTTP Cookie Manager but JMeter still doesn't send the JSESSIONID cookie it might be the case there is a problem with the cookie itself, i.e. it doesn't match domain/path or expired or your HTTP Request sampler configuration is not correct.
If you absolutely sure that your application behaves as expected you can configure JMeter to be less restrictive by:
Choosing a more "relaxed" cookie policy, i.e. netscape
Adding the next line to user.properties file:
CookieManager.check.cookies=false
You can also add the next line to log4j2.xml file:
<Logger name="org.apache.jmeter.protocol.http.control" level="debug" />
this way you will get comprehensive information of the Cookie Manager's behaviour in the jmeter.log file

I'm testing a site in jMeter 5.1 that once returns a header "X-Csrf-Token" and expects the value to be found in a cookie named __csrf_token-1.
The HTTP Cookie manager alone is no help, as I need to write a response header (not a recieved cookie) into a cookie.
How can change cookie values on the fly?
Thanks!
Extract the cookie from the previous response using i.e. Regular Expression Extractor configured like:
double check that the extraction succeeds using Debug Sampler and View Results Tree listener combination
Add HTTP Cookie Manager as a child of the next request and configure it to send __csrf_token-1 cookie with the value of ${token}
make sure to provide correct Domain and Path values, if you don't know them - change "Cookie Policy" to netscape
Im using Jmeter to write some load tests on an API secured by oAuth.
I want to be able to reuse the header manager once the bearer token has been produced from the access token call.
However when I try to move the header manager out side of the http request the call is no longer authorised. I think its because it can no longer get the bearer token.
For Post Request, when i put the header manager outside it no longer works, it only works when I put it under the request as I have done for User get request, Delete request and Put request.
How do I make the header manager reusable and therefore only manage one header manager?
Thank you.

My expectation is that this is due to clash with the HTTP Authorization Manager
Both are Configuration Elements and both obey JMeter Scoping rules
When you move HTTP Header Manager outside the HTTP Request sampler it might be the case that Authorization Header comes from the HTTP Authorization Manager
You can check which exact header value is being sent using Request -> Request Headers tab of the View Results Tree listener
Given you manually create Authorization header for your request I believe if you disable or delete the HTTP Authorization Manager your test should start working as expected as you basically don't need it.
For my application when I record , each HTTP request has required Headers that are maintained at individual HTTP Header Manager.
Now an Authentication token is also managed in the Header manager for every request after login. For multiple users I pass variable for this Authentication token. To make this happen I need to edit in every Header(or I do it opening jmx file in Notepad++ and then replacing all). But is there any way like using a global HTTP header manager that will override over Sample lever Headers.
As per Using JMeter's HTTP Header Manager article:
JMeter now supports multiple Header Managers.
The header entries are merged to form the list for the sampler. If an entry to be merged matches an existing header name, it replaces the previous entry, unless the entry value is empty in which case any existing entry is removed. This allows one to set up a default set of headers, and apply adjustments to particular samplers.
If you don't like the situation you can uncheck "Capture HTTP Headers" box in the HTTP(S) Test Script Recorder
If all headers are same throughout the script then you can remove all individual headers which are currently child of http request samplers and keep only one header manager outside of all request which will act as a global header manager and it will pass values to all requests
