I'm trying to pass a json array* and a multipart file as form data. Image below.
postman screen
As you can see i changed the content type for the "metadata" key and i passed a little array just of one element for the only scope to try the call. But it doesn't work.
The Headers tab is in the image below:
header
(*) each element of the json array is formed by 3 elements: below an example
{"key" : "metadataKey", "value":"metadataValue", "redefinedKey":"aNewKey"}
How i can solve this problem?
Thanks to all!

I have 2 requests:
1) creating new publication
2) updating it
After the first call I extract $reportId from JSON response. In second request I define a file with JSON data in 'Body Data': ${__FileToString(update_report_json_request.txt,,)}
Inside the file I add extracted reportId:
{"sourceuri":"db://reports/${reportId}"}
But value is not being set, and content from file is sent as it is. How can I pass extracted previously value to the file used for POST data?
Add eval function wrapping the result:
${__eval(${__FileToString(update_report_json_request.txt,UTF-8,)})}
eval function returns the result of evaluating a string expression.
I have a http request which gives json output as :
{
"MESSAGE_CODE":200,
"MESSAGE_DESCRIPTION":"OTP Generated Successfully",
"data":
{
"otp":"123456",
"otpGeneratedDate":"yyyy-mm-dd"
}
}
I want to use otp as the input parameter in json for my next http request.
I have added JSON extractor with following configuration :
enter image description here
Names of created variable : OTP
JSON path expressions : $..data.otp
Match No. : 1
But still when I am calling this parameter as
"otpNumber": "${OTP}" in my next input JSON http request, its not getting called.
and value is passed as ${OTP} for otpNumber
How can I handle this
As per JMeter Documentation:
Variables, functions (and properties) are all case-sensitive
So you need to change this line:
"otpNumber": "${OTP}"
to this one:
"otpNumber": "${otp}"
and your test should start working as expected.
You can observe which JMeter Variables are defined along with their values using Debug Sampler and View Results Tree listener combination.
I am creating an API endpoint which contains a file upload field and a few string fields. My goal is to allow clients to clear values on those string fields, i.e. the DB should persist these values as null.
However, due to the fact that the request may contain files, the client should be setting the Content-type header to multipart/form-data. This implies that client cannot send a representation of "null", but can only send an empty string to indicate the intent of clearing the value for a given string field.
Is there a way for grape-api library to know that when it is receiving a multipart request it should be able to nullify blank string values in the params, or is there a better approach to what I am trying to achieve?
Grape.configure do |config|
config.param_builder = Grape::Extensions::Hashie::Mash::ParamBuilder
end
you can override the param builder. extend the default one and override the build_params method or monkey patch it.
params.transform_values {|v| v.eql?('') ? nil : v }
I have an API get requests in Postman that uses a data file of voucher codes to look up other information about the code, such as the name of the product the code is for. When using collection runner the voucher codes are passed incorrectly and the data is returned about the product.
For some reason, I'm unable to capture the data from the response body and link this into the next request.
1st get request has this in the body section:
{
"dealId": 6490121,
"voucherCode": "J87CM9-5PV33M",
"productId": 520846,
"productTitle": "A Book",
"orderNumber": 23586548,
"paymentMethod": "Braintree",
"deliveryNotificationAvailable": true
}
I have this in the tests section to capture the values:
var jsonData = pm.response.json()
pm.environment.set("dealId", jsonData.dealId);
pm.globals.set("productId", jsonData.productId);
when posting the next request in the body:
{
"dealId":{{dealId}},
"dealVoucherProductId": {{productId}},
"voucherCode":"{{VoucherCode}}",
}
and pre-request scripts:
pm.environment.set("productId", "productId");
pm.globals.set("dealId", "dealId");
As you can see I've tried to use global and environmental variables both are not populating the next request body.
What am I missing?
This wouldn't set anything in those variables apart from the strings that you've added.
pm.environment.set("dealId", "dealId");
pm.globals.set("productId", "productId");
In order to capture the response data and set it in the variable you will need to add something like this to the first requests Tests tab:
var jsonData = pm.response.json()
pm.environment.set("dealId", jsonData.dealId);
pm.globals.set("productId", jsonData.productId);
Depending on the response schema of the first request - This should set those values as the variables.
You can just use the {{dealId}} and {{productId}} where ever you need them after that.
If you're using a environment variable, ensure that you have created an file for those values to be set.
I’m trying to parse some JSON from the twitter API and extract the value of a key (“media_url”), which is a sub-key of the key (“entities”)
so far I have:
url = 'https://api.twitter.com/1/statuses/user_timeline.json?include_entities=true&screen_name=print_broadcast&count=1'
response = RestClient.get(url)
data=response.body
result = JSON.parse(data)
How would I extract a key value from the parsed JSON?
I’ve tried
result[“entities”]
etc, but I get en error when trying to convert a string to integer... the result of my parsed JSON is an array - shouldn't this be a hash?
Sorry for the dumb questions.
Any help would be appreciated.
The JSON output is actually a list. Granted, it only has one element, but it's still a list.
First get result[0], then you can access ['entries'].
