Hi im new to jmeter and my task is to add new http request https://bookstore.toolsqa.com/Account/v1/User
and add user
{
"userName": "user",
"password": "password123"
}
im using this body from https://demoqa.com/swagger/#/Account/AccountV1UserPost but it's still failing.
First of all add HTTP Header Manager and configure it to send Content-Type header with the value of application/json
Add View Results Tree listener, it allows you to see response details, it should give you much more info that your "fails"
When I tried to execute your request and yes, it "failed" with:
{"code":"1300","message":"Passwords must have at least one non alphanumeric character, one digit ('0'-'9'), one uppercase ('A'-'Z'), one lowercase ('a'-'z'), one special character and Password must be eight characters or longer."}
When I add a "one uppercase" and a "one non alphanumeric" character, like ! to the password field it works normally (assuming that there is no user with this username)

In Power Automate, I am using an HTTP activity with the following parameters:
Method: POST
Uri: Example.com
Body:
{
"Username":"MyName",
"Password":"#mycode",
"PrivateKey":"1234"
}
This request works fine in Postman, but in Power Automate, it returns an error which says The power flow's logic app flow template was invalid. Unable to parse template language expression 'mycode': expected token 'LeftParenthesis' and actual 'EndOfData'. Which seems to me like it's unable to read the "#" sign because the password is supposed to be #mycode, not mycode
Is there an escape character I can use for this? Unfortunately I'm not able to change the password.
In Power Automate, special characters are always escpaed if you write them twice.
In your case it would look like this: "##mycode"
You can initialise a variable and store your data in it later pass in "send http action".

I need to load test one Python api in below URL format:
//IP:PORT/Sub_Part/?where={"KEY1":"VALUE1","KEY2":"VALUE2","KEY3":"VALUE3"}
I tried to pass the key value pair through csv as well as directly in http request but getting error message.
java.net.URISyntaxException: Illegal character in query at index 47:
http://IP:PORT/Sub_Part/?where={"KEY1":"VALUE1","KEY2":"VALUE2","KEY3":"VALUE3"}
Here key and value are dummy data I have placed here for easy understanding.
Please help me with correct syntax for this URL.
Thanks in advance for all your help.
In REST APIs, JSON objects are typically sent (POST) or returned in the body of the request. They are not typically encoded as part of the URL.
For a GET request, you can either pass the information as segments in the url or as querystring parameters.
For more details refer here, How to send a GET request with a "/" in the query
As per HTML URL Encoding Reference:
URLs can only be sent over the Internet using the ASCII character-set.
so you need to define the request in JMeter's HTTP Request sampler as follows:
Pay attention to URL Encode? checkbox, it has to be ticked otherwise the parameter will be sent "as is"
Another option is using __urlencode() function like:
http://IP:PORT/Sub_Part/?where=${__urlencode({"KEY1":"VALUE1"\,"KEY2":"VALUE2"\,"KEY3":"VALUE3"})}
which will generate an encoded sequence which you could use in the URL path:
%7B%22KEY1%22%3A%22VALUE1%22%2C%22KEY2%22%3A%22VALUE2%22%2C%22KEY3%22%3A%22VALUE3%22%7D
as you can see, all non-ASCII characters where removed.

I am working on a Jmeter LDAP test plan and the test plan has to populate an attribute on the LDAP that is multi-valued.
When I do an LDAP search sampler, I noted that the value I get back is a string, with the values separated by ", ".
But, if I take the same comma-separated string and try to do an LDAP modify or add, using either an LDAP Request or LDAP Extended Request, I get an error.
So I am wondering if there is a way that the Jmeter LDAP Request or LDAP Extended Request can do that?
Thanks,
Jim
EDIT: When I try to use an Extended LDAP Request modification test/add with the attribute of "", I get this error in the Jmeter GUI response:
When attempting to modify entry cn=xxx... to replace the set of values for attribute lastlogindate, value "20181023085627-04, 20181024063205-04" was found to be invalid according to the associated syntax: The provided value "20181023085627-04, 20181024063205-04" is not a valid generalized time value because it contains an invalid character '-' at position 14
The strange part is that even though I have Jmeter to log at debug level, I don't see any detail on the error in the Jmeter.log, but/so I am guessing that that error message is coming from the Jmeter client itself. I noticed that the message says:
to replace the set of values
so it seems like it recognizes that I am trying to modify/replace a multi-value, but it doesn't seem to like the syntax of the replacement values string(s).
Does anyone know what the correct format SHOULD be?
I found the answer to my own question, or at least "A" answer: It appears that I can use an Extended LDAP request, and add the same attribute in that request, multiple times. So for example, if I am populating an attribute named "foo" the Extended LDAP request would have the following:
attribute value opcode
foo 12345 add
foo 12346 add
etc.
I think I also need to do a replace with no value, to empty the attribute, before all the adds.
I am recording Login in Jmeter. Password has '#'. Jmeter recorded exact string but when i run the same, '#' is converted to '%40ss' and login is getting failed(login is failing even if i pass parameters through csv file). But if we pass parameters through jmeter Body Data, Login is successful. I dont want to pass through Body Data, i want to send parameters through CSV file. How to achieve this. Please find the attachments
Recorded and Response
My expectation is that it is only a matter of representation, i.e. when I run similar request using a sniffer tool like Wireshark I can see # sign as a part of form data.
Most probably your problem lies somewhere else, i.e. you haven't correlated this __RequestVerificationToken or haven't added HTTP Cookie Manager.
When it comes to load testing ASP.NET web applications you cannot just record and replay your test, you need to perform correlation of dynamic parameters, check out ASP.NET Login Testing with JMeter article for more details.
Lakshmikanth, when you are passing any special character in parameters values then JMeter converts that character into percent-encoding for eg. '#' converts to '%40', '!' converts to '%21'.
To overcome this issue you can pass your password as it is [say P#ssword] in the .csv file but in your request you need to uncheck the encode checkbox corresponding to your password parameter.
My script get an authenticity token from first page, then pass it to the second page I got this error when running the test:
{"errors":{"error:":["ActionController::InvalidAuthenticityToken"]}}
I checked the token variable, apparently the string such as /, = has been encoded into %2F and %3D etc..
On my second page's HTTP request window, I have NOT selected "encoded" for token variable defined in the "Send parameters with the request" section.
Apparently the problem is I did not asked for encoded variable, JMeter just encode it. Is it a known bug or I should do something to decode it or is there a work around on this issue?
Did you pass token in POST data?
I'v faced the same problem and just pass body data as work around, to do it you need:
Select you HTTP sampler
Switch from "Parameter" to "Body Data" tab (you have to delete all parameters to do it)
Write body data (variable substitution works)
Body data example:
username=Some_name&token=AbRaCaDaBrA
NB, if something need to be encoded, you'll have to do it manually.
