Using SOAP/XML-RPC request as a Monitor in JMeter - jmeter

I am using jmeter to submit a few SOAP messages to the application engine. I need a monitor that can collect some of the application engine's performance statistics. But the only option to query the application statistics is to send a different SOAP message to the application.
How can I use a SOAP/XML-RPC request sampler as a monitor? I can't use HTTP request as a monitor since there's no corresponding HTTP service to retrieve monitor results.

Actually as per Creating WebService Test Plan it is recommended to use HTTP Request sampler to perform SOAP calls. HTTP Request Sampler has "Use as Monitor" checkbox
Don't forget to add HTTP Header Manager in order to send correct Content-Type and SOAPAction headers.

Jmeter parametirisation of SAML Request, Response and Relay State

In JMeter HTTP Samplers I have to parameterize the HTTP Sampler containing parameters for SAML Request, SAML Response and Relay State but I don't know how to do it.
In addition to your credentials you need to send the aforementioned parameters. The parameters can be found in responses for the previous requests.
You need to extract them from the previous responses using suitable JMeter Post-Processors and save into JMeter Variables
While sending the next request you need to add the variables from the previous step.
The process is known as correlation and there is a lot of information regarding it in the Internet, i.e. How to Load Test SAML SSO Secured Websites with JMeter

JMeter - websocket plugin - forbidden error

We are trying to test a WebSocket communication using the JMeter plugin(WebSocket request-response Sampler) by Peter Doornbosch. Headers are sent appropriately, response headers are received as intended with Response code:101. But the message says {"message": "Forbidden", "connectionId":"xxxxxxxx=", "requestId":"xxxxxxxx="}.
"Headers are sent appropriately" - I doubt this is the case.
Compare requests which are being sent by JMeter and by the real browser (or other WebSocket client application) using an external sniffer tool like Fiddler or Wireshark - the requests must be exactly the same (apart from dynamic values which need to be correlated).
Given you will be sending the same request with JMeter as the real browser does you will be getting the same response
Also it might be the case of missing authentication/authorization token which is normally being added to the URL

Possible if want to do API Load Testing using JMeter with URI info only?

My team planned to do API Performance Testing using JMeter 5.0 for my client. My client developed the API in Kubernetes. Just wondering, they gave info such as URI, HTTP Method and Content-Type only. We never have experience using URI. Are these info sufficient to do load test in JMeter? And where do I fill in these info? Is it in Config Element: HTTP Header Manager?
Because usually I only do my enablement using sample website which already provide the URL.
Do I need to ask them to provide the specific URL for this? Or URL can be extracted from URI?
Thanks.
Normally you should put:
Protocol, server name or IP and Port Number into HTTP Request Defaults, this way you will have a single configuration element having these details and in case of change you will need to introduce the change at one place only and won't have to revisit each and every HTTP Request sampler
Individual requests are defined using individual HTTP Request samplers where you need to provide URL Path and request body (if any)
Content-Type and other Headers can be provided via HTTP Header Manager, the same Scoping Rules as for HTTP Request Defaults apply, for example if you want to send application/json for all the requests just add HTTP Header Manager on the top of your Test Plan and it will add the header to all HTTP Request samplers which are at the same level as the HTTP Header Manager or lower.

JMeter - error in Load WSDL

I was trying to test webservice on jmeter and I am using WebService(SOAP)
Request (DEPRECIATED) in Thread Group>add>sampler>WebService(SOAP)
Request (DEPRECIATED) and getting this error. I already use the WSDL URL in browser and it recognized, but why in jmeter wasn't? I am using Apache JMeter (2.9 r1437961)
Upgrade your JMeter to the latest version (2.13 as for now), it's available from the Downloads page
Don't use WebService(SOAP) Request, switch to SOAP/XML-RPC Request instead. You can even use HTTP Request sampler, but if you need to send SOAPAction - you'll need to add HTTP Header Manager to send headers like SOAPAction and Content-Type
Response code 401 means "Unauthorized", it looks like your web service needs some credentials. Add HTTP Authorization Manager to your test plan and supply credentials there.

how to use jmeter with ajax request

How to use JMeter with ajax request?
I have a button with is clicked and by using fiddler I can find the session id which is being sent to the server.
What should I do next using the JMeter in order to handle this.
EDIT:
Let's say I have in my hand the header which call the request. The JSESSIONID AJAXREQUEST
and so on where should I put it ?...
I putted it in http header manager name and value.
Jmeter will not execute Javascript embedded in your web page. However AJAX request is also a HTTP request that Jmeter will be able to run as a separate HTTP request and upon getting the response you can have post processors (using XPATH or REGEX) to extract the session id in a Jmeter variable.
Alternatively you can record the Jmeter scripts using Jmeter proxy and then all the HTTP requests will be recorded for you and you will just need to attach a post processor manually.
