How to take the field values in Regular Expression extractor of jmeter
What i have to give
Regular Expression:
Template:
Match No.(0 for Random):
You can check the below example to extract the value.
You need to use ${spanval} in the subsequent requests to access the value you have extracted.
Check this: JMeter - Regular Expression
Extractor
In general using regular expressions to parse HTML isn't a very good idea as regular expressions are very sensitive to markup change and very fragile.
You can use XPath Extractor instead.
Add XPath Extractor as a child of the request which returns that "span" and configure it as follows:
Check Use Tidy box if response is not XHTML-compliant
Reference Name: anything meaningful, i.e. nameDomain
XPath Query: //span[#id='nameDomain']/text()
Refer extracted value as ${nameDomain} where required.
See XPath Tutorial for language reference and Using the XPath Extractor in JMeter for some more details.
If you still want to use Regular Expressions, the relevant Regular Expression will be <span id="nameDomain">(\S+)</span> and Template $1$. Other fields (apart from the "Reference Name" may be left as they are.

I want to get the value of
input type = "hidden" name = "CRAFT_CSRF_TOKEN"
value="dfsdgdg"
below is the response that I am getting for my first request. I want to read the value from the first request and use it in my subsequent request. I tried using a regular expression extractor,
CSS selector extractor and XPath extractor none of them workedenter image description hereenter image description here
input type="hidden" name="CRAFT_CSRF_TOKEN" value="4edwUQQn9gYbf5zYjz4fuRIfyu3lzoXi3_27IU7Jj54RLskSWvVvnKadSTdGYpVofQmqn79hT9dHLYeBsZf0h6-M9HErsMb6eXiHWTXHXt4="
XPath: //input[#type='hidden' and #name='CRAFT_CSRF_TOKEN']/#value
However it's better to go for XPath2 (the same syntax can be used)
CSS: input[type=hidden][name=CRAFT_CSRF_TOKEN]
You can use the XPath Extractor, XPath2 Extractor and CSS Extractor as in the other answer. They all work well if your response is a valid HTML.
Here is another option with a Regular Expression Extractor.
Regular expression
name="CRAFT_CSRF_TOKEN" value="(.*?)"
Note: You can validate the syntax of regular expressions, CSS, XPath, etc in the View Result Tree.
I have a response which have multiple values which need to pass in the next request. How can I right a single regular expression to capture that values and pass those to next request.
<id>583839</id>
<Clientno>543</Clientno>
If you configure the Regular Expression Extractor as follows:
textual representation of the settings:
Variable: DATA
Regular Expression: (?s)<id>(\d+)</id>.*<Clientno>(\d+)</Clientno>
Template: $1$$2$
You will be able to access the extracted values as:
${DATA_g1} - for 583839
${DATA_g2} - for 543

This is simple. You can use a regular expression extractor for this.
Just add 2 regular expression extractor config elements to the sampler from which you would want to extract data. Specify the below expressions in them and specify a relevant variable name. The template should be $1$ in both elements.
<id>(.+?)</id>
<Clientno>(.+?)</Clientno>
The above will provide you variables with the data you need.
Need help on building a regular expression to extract the value "2:_id93" and the uid. Here there are multiple sets of data with different status. How ever, i would like to search for the values corresponding to "In Update"
In Update
Can you try the below regular expression?
In Update(.*?)policytableId:(.*?)',null,\[\['uid','(.*?)'
Add Regular Expression Extractor as a child of the request which returns the above data
Configure it like:
Name of created variable: anything meaningful, i.e. id
Regular Expression: In Update.*searchResults:policytableId:(.+?)'
Template: $1$
That's it, you should be able to access the extracted value as ${id} where required.

I am new to JMeter, I want to fetch the 123 number from the below JSON response and store it in a variable. And user the value for further requests.
{"data":" Abcd efgh 123 successfully created","error":null,"info":null,"warn":null}
Can someone address to achieve it using BeanShell Postprocessor and Regular Expression Extractor or if any there is any other way to achieve the same.
Add Regular Expression Extractor Post-Processor as a child of the request which returns above JSON
Configure it as follows:
Reference Name: anything meaningful, i.e. number
Regular Expression: (\d+) successfully created
Template: $1$
You will be able to refer the extracted value as ${number} or ${__V(number)} later on where required.

Also be aware that JMeter 3.0+ comes with JSON Extractor, it is not applicable for your current enquiry however if later on you will need to get the whole attribute value(s) it will be much easier to use it rather than regular expressions
Regular Expression Extractor with (\d+) is the simpliest.
Reference Name: myNumber
Regular Expression: (\d+)
Template `$1$`
Match No. `1`.
It will be saved in myNumber variable
Regular Expression -"p_instance" value="(.*?)"
Match count: 1
Match[1][0]="p_instance" value="11917272245034"
Match[1][1]=11917272245034
When added $1$ in template - error is displayed(request is not created)
$1$$1$ is dding duplicate strings in the request.
What should be the template to fetch this value
Just add a Debug Sampler to your Test Plan - this way you will be able to see all the variables generated by the Regular Expression Extractor in the View Results Tree listener. See How to Debug your Apache JMeter Script article for more details.
Going forward when asking for a help with the regular expressions include essential part of the response and indicate which value you are looking for.
Here comes mandatory advice not to use regular expressions for parsing HTML and suggestion to use CSS/JQuery Extractor or XPath Extractor instead.
