Extracting POST response data returns NOT_FOUND - jmeter

I was hoping someone may be able to help with the following issue I have.
I have a 'HTTP Request' sampler that makes a POST request. The response data for this request as per the results tree is:
<script>window.document.location.href='handler.ashx?act=wzfin\x26req=nav\x26mop=requirements!new_finish_wiz\x26pk=0c86ea74-c067-4bcf-a49d-be7d0e420fbf';</script>
I want to grab the value for the pk parameter in the response URL above and store in a variable called REQUIREMENT_ID. I have set up a 'Regular Expression Extractor' for the sampler and set it up as per below:
Apply to: Main Sample Only
Field to Check: Response message
Reference Name: REQUIREMENT_ID
Regular Expression: (?<=pk=)(.*)(?=\')
Template: $1$
Match No: 1
Default Value: NOT_FOUND
However, when I run this, NOT_FOUND is being returned. Any ideas what I might be doing wrong?

Change your regular expression to this <script>.+pk=(.*?)'
And change your field to check to Body

Try this: ".pk=(.?)'"
Not to sure why you way doesn't work to be honest.

Jmeter Response Assertion is failing upon getting from Reg Ex Value

Hello I have a scenario where I need to validate the extracted value from my regex, unfortunately I'm encountering an error upon using Response Assertion. I would like to seek assistance to any one of you. Your response is highly appreciated. Thank you so much in advance
I am able to extract my regex upon running, but I encounter upon using that on my Response Assertion.

Response Assertion Configuration
Expected Result: I just want to validate "userId = 14534"
If you want to just check the presence of 14534 text in the response - just configure the Response Assertion as follows:
In case you want to check whether 1st row of the user_id column of your SQL query result set is equal to 14534:
In the JDBC Request sampler define a variable name, i.e. user_id
Amend your Response Assertion configuration to Apply to a JMeter Variable called user_id_1:

Need to pass a data from a json response to the subsequent request's Post Body data however it is not working, something is going wrong

I need to pass a data from a json response to the subsequent request's Post Body data however it is not working, something is going wrong.
First request returns the JSON in response body which looks like this:
"accessToken":[{"idToken":"eyJ05C3RU","token":"159c82d30ec3123e873ab989cc"}]
0000000
I have to extract 'accessToken' value to pass it to the next request's post bodydata (not under parameter tab of the request, it has to pass to BodyData tab of the next request)
I have created to JSON path extractors for the first request where getting response data with these values.
1JSON path extractor: $..accessToken[0].idToken
passed this in json path expression:$..accessToken[0].idToken
in the request of next request: { "idtoken": ${idToken}}
view results in tree:
shows post data as request:
POST data:{ "idtoken": ${idToken}}
response data:
omething broke!SyntaxError: Unexpected token $
at `Object.parse (native)`
Please help to resolve the issue. it will be really helpful.
Most likely your JSON Path expression is wrong or response isn't valid JSON.
You can fall back to Regular Expression Extractor which is not that handy, but will work for any text response, the relevant configuration would be:
Apply to: same as for JSON Path extractor
Reference name: idToken
Regular Expression: "idToken"\s?:\s?"(.+?)"
Template: $1$
Demo:
Reference material:
JSON Path Getting Started - if you want to continue with the JSON Path Extractor (double check that your response is a valid JSON using i.e. http://jsonlint.com/)

Thanks for all the help. I am able to overcome my issue by using JSON path expression extractor in the next request body as "idtoken": "${idToken_1}".

Extracting an expression from the body of a response, and using it for the next post in jmeter

I have a jmeter test that I have created that does a post and then runs a secondary post with a string from the first response. I have a regular expression extractor that is getting the information from the response correctly, but when I try to call it in the next post it returns a value of 0. My question is: How do I store this value and reference it correctly in the second post?
Regular Expression Extractor:
Response text:
response_code=2 response_code_text=Missing required request field:
Order ID. time_stamp=1479849486545 retry_recommended=false
secondary_response_code=0 order_id=356005935614233
capture_reference_id=1 iso_code= bank_approval_code=
bank_transaction_id= batch_id= avs_code=
credit_card_verification_response= reference_id=1 bin=
retrieval_reference_number= payer_identifier= system_trace_number=
captured_amount=0.00 emv_data= bank_response_code=

Variable reference call in second post:
I found the answer to my issue, I simply needed to change the Match No to "1". Then I was able to pass the order_id into the next post.

Passing variable from response to request in JMETER

In need to pass a data from a response to the subsequent request. Something goes wrong and the default variable value appears in the request.
First request returns the JSON in response body which looks like this:
{"issued_at":"2016-01-14T12:41:01.000Z","expires":"2016-01-14T12:46:01.000Z","id":"j6M ... MTA=="}
I extract the value of the id attribute using the Regular Expression Extractor:
Then I pass the token variable to the subsequent request parameter:
But the request is created with the default value of the variable:
There is a JSON Path Extractor designed to deal with JSON content type, I believe it would be easier to use it.
The relevant JSON Path query will be as simple as $..id
See Using the XPath Extractor in JMeter (scroll down to "Parsing JSON") for comprehensive information on plugin installation and usage and JSONPath - XPath for JSON for JSONPath language reference and examples.
In regards to your Regular Expression Extractor configuration:
remove 1 from Match No.
Provide $1$ as Template
If you look at the Regular Expression Extractor documentation, the field Template is required. I suggest you to use value $1$ and try again.
The problem was resolved by setting the "Field to check" radio button to "Body" at the "Regular Expression Extractor" dialog and by setting the Template field value to $1$.
Thanks to alphamikevictor and Dmitri T for help!
You should use ${token_g1} to get the value of the first group of the regex match (the value you're looking for).

JSON Path Extractor in JMeter

I am new to jmeter. Can anyone help me to use a response object of one request to be passed as a request header of next HTTP request ?
Let me explain.
I am getting an access token along with the response of login in my app:
{: "responseCode":18, : "message":"Successfully logged in.", : "responseObject":"8zWExE4eSdhcJDwnW9MgIw=="}
No I want to use this access token (8zWExE4eSdhcJDwnW9MgIw) as one of the parameter of next request.
I used JSON Path Extractor for this.But its not working.
I am using JSON Path Extractor as well and it works great if it is properly configured.
Just put it into request and fill fields:
Variable Name: access_token (or any other you want to use later in request like this ${access_token})
JSON Path: responseObject should be enough if the JSON you pasted is full response (thjose additional colons are just some mistakes when copy-pasting or the JSON is corrupted?)
Default Value: I always use some value like 'NotUpdated!' here so I can assert in the next step or at least see it easily in request.
Not seeing the full response it is quote hard to come up with a correct JSON Path expression.
Given what you posted it should be something like $.responseObject
See JSON Path Syntax guide for queries syntax examples and Using the XPath Extractor in JMeter (scroll down to "Parsing JSON") for plugin installation instructions and XPath to JSON syntax mapping.
Just in case anybody would face an issue with multiple variable extractions using JSON Extractor (like me), make sure to:
List the names of variables/path expressions/default values using a semicolon as a separator.
Provide default values for every variable.
The second point is apparently required, and I only found out about it from this
Medium post.
