As am new to jmeter please help me in passing the value from a webservice response as the input to the next webservice request
I guess that your web service returns XML (more likely) or JSON.
All you need is to use XPath Extractor Post Processor, get interesting response part, store it to variable and use in next request.
You can address variables next ways:
${YOUR_VARIABLE_NAME}
${__V(YOUR_VARIABLE_NAME)}
I prefer the second option as it allows combining several variables, evaluating functions, etc.

I am using HTTP request sampler for API performance testing. My APIs might return a response containing the skiptoken
If response contains the skiptoken, I need to call the API again using the skip token and capture the performance metrics. I required calling the API until there are no skiptoken available in the response.
Please let me know how I can implement this in JMeter
You can add a Post-Processor, for example JSON Extractor, which will extract the skpitoken into a JMeter Variable from the API response.
If the variable is defined you can add If Controller and send another request to the API with the variable from the previous step.
Something like this:
You have to use any of the Post processor according to your API response content. e.g, Json extractor, Regex extractor, Boundary based extractor, whichever suits well.
Then you need to use While Controller instead of If controller. The While controller it will keep executing the API inside it, until the last skiptoken gets retrieved/ not found - refer the screenshot
If you use If controller - It will execute only once and proceed with other APIs
Since, I don't know the exact response body structure - you can use Regex to fetch the value, something like the below
"#odata.nextLink":"([^ ]+)"
I'm new here and also a beginner on JMeter and maybe this was already answered in an old post that I didn't find, sorry if this is the case.
I had this Post request I need to send with all these IDs that vary according to the account
Post Request
In order to get all of the IDs, I used the JSon extractor to put then into a variable
JSon extractor, then I got all the FieldIDs that I need.
ID extracted
But now how can I add this variable inside the request? I tried something like {"ids":"${fieldId}","includeBoundary":true} but it didn't work. How can I use this?
Please see: HTTP Request parameter dialog example
If you need to extract the whole response, save it into a JMeter Variable and send it back to another endpoint - the easiest way is using Boundary Extractor providing empty left and right boundaries
If you need more complex transformations - take a look at JSR223 Test Elements and Groovy language
I solved my problem in a so easy way(damn it)!!!!
On the Json extractor I just marked the option "Computer concatenation var (suffix_ALL)" then on the debbuger I got all IDs I needed in only one line and finally on my request I just add on the body data the line {"ids": [${fieldId_ALL}],"includeBoundary":true} and bingo it worked like a charm!!!!
I'm trying to extract variables returned from one HTTP request, use them in a second HTTP request then extract the variables returned from the second HTTP request.
I then need to use both the first extracted and second extracted variables in a third HTTP request.
I can extract the variables from the first HTTP request and use these in the second HTTP request but cant seem to get the variables extracted from the second HTTP request to then use in the third HTTP request.
Is it even possible to do this?
This is my current set up
It should be straightforward and possible as long as both extractors are going into unique variable names. The Debug Postprocessor will show you the values stored in each variable after a test run. What do you see in those in the context of the third http request?
I'm new to JMeter and I am trying to extract two values using regular expression extractor. The output below is taken out from my browser developer tool in the Params tab. Any help would be appreciated thanks.
execution: e1s1

First of all understand how Correlation in JMeter works..
It is the process of capturing and storing the dynamic response from the server and passing it on to subsequent requests. A response is considered dynamic when it can return different data for each iterating request, occasionally affecting successive requests.
The parameters what you have seen are dynamic , you have to identify from which request's response these values are coming.
Use regular expression extractors to extract dynamic values and pass it on to the subsequent requests.

Jmeter Extraction using Regular Expressions
In this example request 226 is main Post request which internally executes 1 Post and 2 Get requests during run time. how i can extract dynamic code value from one of Get request of 226 which is input for the request 228.
I know how to extract from response using RegEx and Xpath. I this case need help Passing Data From a Request to Another Request
Hopefully you've already found the solution, but I believe that is what you've been looking for:
To extract data from a response, you can go for Regular Expression Extractor in this case which is faster and consumes less memory and CPU compared to other extractors like XPath which is worse.
This blog has decent info on extracting information using Regular Expression Extractor.
You are already saying that you know how to use them. Then it is very easy to pass the value to another request. You just use the variable using below syntax to access the value - ${variablename}. Whereever you need to substitute the value, just use ${variablename}.
Ex: code=${code}&stats=${stats}
Remember: Scope of this variable is within the thread for a thread group.
I don't think you will be able to bypass OAuth 2.0 login challenge using correlation. See How to Run Performance Tests on OAuth Secured Apps with JMeter for feasible options.
you can use beanshell sampler to process the results and have prev to get the list of results
org.apache.jmeter.samplers.SampleResult [] temp=prev.getSubResults();
print(temp[2].getURL())
