Need to generate new AuthorisationId/sessionID for each user.
How is it possible to create a new for each user in jmeter?
If I am using the sessionID by recording, it is showing the session expired after an hour.
I don't think you should "generate" this sessionID, most probably you need to correlate it.
My expectation is that when you open login page or perform login the application responds with the sessionID either in redirection URL or in response body or in response headers
First of all try adding HTTP Cookie Manager, it might be the case it will be enough to resolve your issue.
If not, you will need to identify where this sessionID is coming from and use the suitable JMeter's PostProcessor to extract the sessionID and store it into a JMeter Variable. Once done you should replace recorded hard-coded value with the JMeter Variable from the previous step.
Check out Using Regular Expressions to Extract Tokens and Session IDs to Variables article for more information, if you will experience problems - don't hesitate to ask new question, but this time provide more at least partial response showing where this sessionID comes from and how you pass it to the application.
You need to correlate it. Just use postprocessor extractor-regular expression. Replace the hard-coded values with the variable.

In Jmeter test plan, I have too many http requests. One of this creates a new session every time when clicking the create button. After that other http request use that session id in URL.
How to get that session id when we call create button and put it into other request URL?
Sounds like a use-case for the HTTP URL Re-writing Modifier, just provide your session id as the "Session Argument Name" and it should do the "magic" of hard-coded parameters substitution for you.
See Using the HTTP URL Re-writing Modifier article for comprehensive explanation and real-life usage scenario if needed.
I'm trying to test a few functions on my Laravel based website. However, I'm having difficulties logging in the website. I've used BlazeMeters Chrome plugin to record my events and save it in jmx file. Was able to do that and imported the file in JMeter. Now at login we are not just examine the email and password, but also a _token variable. This is individual for all visitors. Do I need and if yes, then how can I fetch the token for one user and use that at login time and any other time, when the _token was requested?

Your test flow should look like:
Open Login Page (usually HTTP Get Request)
Extract the token from the response using one of JMeter's Post-Processors (normally people use Regular Expression Extractor or CSS/JQuery Extractor)
Perform Login (usually HTTP Post Request) providing credentials and the token from the step 1
The process is known as correlation and there is a plenty of information on it over the Internet.
If you want to get things done faster you could consider an alternative way of recording a JMeter test scenario which automatically detects dynamic parameters, generates the relevant post-processors to extract them and store into JMeter Variables and substitutes parameters with the variables so you won't have to do it manually.

I have recorded the steps of creating user using badboy. i have tried the same script using Jmeter. All steps getting passed, but its not effecting. I mean Jmeter is not creating the user in the webpage. Badboy is able to create the user.
Please guide me.
JMeter isn't smart enough to automatically do the test for you.
First of all you'll need HTTP Cookie Manager to simulate browser cookies, deal with sessions, cookie-based authentication, etc.
Also the majority of web applications use kind of page-level state-management mechanisms like VIEWSTATE which can be vital
And finally your user creating request may be missing some mandatory dynamic parameters which are being passed along with the request.
The answer to points 2 and 3 is correlation - the process of extracting dynamic values from page, storing them to variables and re-using them in next requests. JMeter offers several options for this called Post Processors, the most commonly used are:
Regular Expressions Extractor
XPath Extractor
CSS/JQuery Extractor
JSONPath Extractor (available via plugin)
I would suggest to record your use case several times, inspect what values are being sent using View Results Tree Listener, detect those, which are dynamic, use extractors above to fetch dynamic data and add corresponding variables to your user-creating HTTP Request.
Hope that it's clear.

I need to create scenario for user interaction with single-page WEB application. The application does lots of AJAX calls in order to authenticate user and get user data.
So I created simple scenario with HTTP Test Script Recorder and tried to record my script.
Everything went well, however I noticed that whilst request data is recorder properly, the response data is not recorder at all. I tried to enable Add assertions and Regex matching - but that didn't work as well.
Can you please advice how do I record response texts as well?
View Results Tree under proxy will record request, responses during recording.
This is useful to understand where a dynamic field comes from. This will help your find from which response X you need to extract data to inject in request X+N.
I think you may find this option useful to add in user.properties:
proxy.number.requests=true
This will give a number to each request and corresponding sampler so you will be able to find response for the request.
Once you have done this, you will start adding Post Processors (Regex, CSS/JQuery, XPAth ...) to Sampler X to extract data from its response.
This will create variables you can then use as ${varName} in request X+N.
I'm still pretty new to jmeter. I'm using jmeter 2.9.
I have created a thread group with two threads in it. I have set up an HTTP Request Defaults for the thread group. I have created User Parameters to define person IDs that I'm going to be working with in each thread.
I then set up two HTTP requests. One for login, one for retrieve person. For the login one, I created a regular expression extractor to extract the session key that comes back. I then supply the session key as the parameter for the retrieve person request.
I then sniffed the net traffic and started jmeter test. I wanted to make sure the session key was getting passed into the second parameter OK, but it appears to be running on the login twice and then ending. I am getting a 200 return on the HTTP packet and my jmeter test was set to continue regardless.
I believe I followed chapter 5 of the jmeter user manual to set up this test with the addition of parameters, user parameters, and the regex extractor.
Can anyone give me an idea what i might have done so that the second request never runs?
Add "View Results Tree" listener to see what jMeter is actually doing? You should also check jmeter.log to see if there are any exceptions while generating the 2nd request.
