Hi I would favor that your test gets the data in the form it needs rather than the test writes code. e.g. if you have smething like {"a":"b","c":"d"} and you also need the value of d for something then for e.g. you could create your test data as "d", {"a":"b","c":"d"} and use CSV dataset config or something like that to read it.
If you dont want to touch your test data and still want to do it as part of your test then http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/jmeter/tags/v2_8/docs/usermanual/functions.html#__FileToString pass variable Name and use any of the JSR-223 / beanshell functions to parse the variable (vars.get("variableName") will give you the value that you need to parse regards deepak On Thu, Sep 27, 2018 at 5:54 AM Nayak, Soumya R. <sna...@firstam.com> wrote: > Hi All, > > I am submitting HTTP requests and I am getting the request content > dynamically from individual files from a local folder using the Jmeter > function - "__FileToString". > I have a requirement to extract a value from a variable from the request > data, so how can I do that ? > > As I have post processors which work only on response data, is there any > way to extract from the dynamic request data? > > Regards, > Soumya > > > ****************************************************************************************** > This message may contain confidential or proprietary information intended > only for the use of the > addressee(s) named above or may contain information that is legally > privileged.
