If the number of times you will use these data is already known you should rearrange your csv to contain all sequenced data in the same line.
Example: suppose your csv file contains the data below bob fred mark tina you could reformat it to bob,fred,mark,tina and use "name1,name2,name3,name4" as column names on the CSV Dataset Config this way you could compose your variable name using __count function and iterate within the sequence. 2013/4/15 Shmuel Krakower <[email protected]> > Thanks for the response. > I'd guess I can give it a try in a bit different way. > > The only problem is that in my case I need ten different values out of the > file with each sample (I am sending 10 different user IDs to get their data > with specific API call). > The cleanest solution is to add another option to the CSV Dataset Config > Element, so it will support such case. > Adding another config option like: Refresh value on: Every reference, Every > iteration. > > Another option I have in mind is if the CSV config create an array of all > items in CSV file, I can randomly generate the item I wanna get out of the > array of items.
