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
More information: How to Convert Your Postman API Tests to JMeter for Scaling
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.

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
Hi im new to jmeter and wanted to check performance of api in jmeter but not sure how to use form data as im using video in my api not sure how to add and test
Postman : enter image description here
it would be helpful if some one helps
thanks in advance
The easiest conversion option is just recording it using JMeter's HTTP(S) Test Script Recorder
Start HTTP(S) Test Script Recorder
If you're using HTTPS protocol - import JMeter's self-signed certificate into Postman
Configure Postman to use JMeter as the proxy
Copy the file facial_10sec.webm file to "bin" folder of your JMeter installation, this way JMeter will be able to properly intercept the request and generate the request body
Run your request in Postman
JMeter will capture the request and generate the relevant HTTP Request sampler and the HTTP Header Manager
Postman Integration is demonstrated in this short video
It does not have the HTTPS Certificate integration. If you are using HTTPS, please import the JMeter CA certificate into the Postman.
Tried to send POST API via Jmeter. Throws me 400 bad req:
Set the authorization, content-type, user agent. Made the same replica as I use in postman. But no luck.
Try removing the empty row in Header Manager.
Show in View Results Tree the response, the 3 tabs so that we can help more.
If it's working in Postman, put JMeter as a proxy to record the request.
To do it, use Template Recording in JMeter then start HTTP(S) Test Script Recorder and in postman configure proxy as http://localhost:8080
I tried to run a POST method for API testing in JMeter, I have sent the parameters as needed, but still it shows cannot post.
What should I do to make it work?
user add post request
response message
If you are testing an API my expectation is that you need to send either JSON or XML payload using "Body Data" tab of the HTTP Request sampler.
You will also need HTTP Header Manager to send the relevant Content-Type header

REST API Testing - How to Do it Right
Another way of building a web service test plan is executing the request(s) according to your test scenario using a 3rd-party tool like Postman or SoapUI and recording them via JMeter's HTTP(S) Test Script Recorder.
In the post request, you need to provide server name or IP address and port number respectively. If it still doesn't work, try changing the path by adding /api then /user/data. it works in some cases.
Hope this works out!
