I have 20 endpoints that need to be load tested using the JMeter. I have created a CSV file that contains the server name and path value and now I want to read this CSV file in JMeter and set the value of path and server name based on API name.
If you want to choose this or that endpoint basing on the API Name - take a look at Switch Controller, it executes one of its children depending on the "Switch value" which can be a variable.
You can combine "ServerName" and "Path" into one line and put everything into User Defined Variables

I am trying to check if any zip file exists in my SFTP folder. GetMetadata activity works fine if I explicitly provide the filename but I can't know the file name here as the file name is embeded with timestamp and sequence number which are dynamic.
I tried specifying *.zip but that never works and GetMetadata activity always returns false even though the zip file actually exists. is there any way to get this worked? Suggestion please.
Sample file name as below, in this the last part 0000000004_20210907080426 is dynamic and will change every time:
TEST_TEST_9999_OK_TT_ENTITY_0000000004_20210907080426
You could possibly do a Get Metadata on the folder and include the Child items under the Field List.
You'll have to iterate with a ForEach using the expression
#activity('Get Folder Files').output.childItems
and then check if item().name (within the ForEach) ends with '.zip'.
I know it's a pain when the wildcard stuff doesn't work for a given dataset, but this alternative ought to work for you.
If you are using exists in the Get Metadata activity, you need to provide the file name in it.
As a workaround, you can get the child items (with filename *.zip) using the Get Metadata activity.
Output:
Pass the output to If Condition activity, to check if the required file exists.
#contains(string(json(string(activity('Get Metadata1').output.childItems))),'.zip')
You can use other activities inside True and False activities based on If Condition.
If there is no file exists or no child items found in the Get Metadata activity.
If condition output:
For SFTP dataset, if you want to use a wildcard to filter files under the field specified folderPath, you would have to skip this setting and specify the file name in activity source settings (Get Metadata activity).
But Wildcard filter on folders/files is not supported for Get Metadata activity.
I have an endpoint, you can have información about products
{{URL_API}}/products/
If i perform a GET method over that endpoint i will obtain the information of every product
BUT i can also specify the product that i want to know about, i.e:
{{URL_API}}/products/9345TERFER (the last code is the id of the product, called SKU)
The problem is that if i want to make a CSV in order to update the information of different products i have to define a variable called sku in the endpoint so i will be able to pass the corresponding SKU
I want to create the variable {{sku}} but i do not understand how to do that.. i tried so many times and i failed, i've searched a lot but i do not really understand
Also, should i use ":" before the declaration of the variable? i mean:
{{URL_API}}/products/:{{sku}}
or simply:
{{URL_API}}/ns/products/{{sku}}
Can you help me?
I'm super lost :(
EDIT:
I want to perform a PUT method, i want to pass different values to the body and then.. send the request (it throws an error: 404 not found)
This is what i did:
PUT|{{URL_API}}/products/{{sku}}
body:
{
"tax_percentage":"{{tax_percentage}}",
"store_code":"{{store_code}}",
"markup_top":"{{markup_top}}",
"status":"{{status}}",
"group_prices": [
{
"group":"{{class_a}}",
"price":"{{price_a}}",
"website":"{{website_a}}"
}
]
}
CSV:
POSTMAN:
Your issue seems to be just a basic understanding of how data files work with variables in Postman, here's a simple example that will work the same way for you too.
This is a basic request I'm using to resolve the variable from the data file - It's a GET request but that doesn't matter as all we're look at here is using a data file to resolve variables. All you need to do is ensure the URL is correct and that you SAVE the request before using the runner.
Here's a simple CSV file created in a text editor. The heading sku in the name on the variable it will reference inside the Postman request. Each value under that is the value that will be used for each iteration.
In the Runner, select your Collection from the list (If you have more than one) then select the CSV file. Once imported, you will be able to see a preview of the data.
If that's correct, press the Run button. The Runner will then iterate through the file and pick up the sku value in the CSV file and use it in the request. I've expanded one of the requests so you can see that the value was used in the request.
We are creating a new file from template as specified in the Office Uri Schemes documentation.
As per the documentation we can give an optional parameter with |s to specify the default path offered as a save location when the file is first saved. The only restriction is that if the optional default save location is supplied, it must be pointing to the same host name as the template.
We are using Office 365 group drive to save the template and the default save location(for newly generated file) is also in the same group drive. But it is not picking the default save location as specified.
Following is the URI that we are testing.
ms-word:nft|u|https://figg.sharepoint.com/sites/1dev/Shared%20Documents/Config/Files/Minutes.dotx|s|https://figg.sharepoint.com/sites/1dev/Shared%20Documents/Dest
The above url when opened generate a new file from template but it did not give the default save location specified in the command when we try to save the file.
Any help if how to fix this would be very helpful.
Are you sure about your save URL ? It looks truncated as Dest...
If it's correct, make sure that it ends with a forward slash, like this:
ms-word:nft|u|https://figg.sharepoint.com/sites/1dev/Shared%20Documents/Config/Files/Minutes.dotx|s|https://figg.sharepoint.com/sites/1dev/Shared%20Documents/Dest/
You also must make sure you have the correct permissions to write back to that particular document library

I have a txt file that is holding a string inside, I want to be able to use this string in one of my scripts, so I'm wondering if there is a way to set the content of the file as one of the build properties or parameters which I'll be able to use in my scripts it should be the same as using one of the build environment properties.
For example : ${JOB_NAME} which is holding the the job name, so in the same way I want to access the content of the file which is holding some value inside.
Is it possible?
You can upload a file from your computer to the workspace through the File parameter of the job.
You can use Extended Choice plugin parameter, to read value(s) from a file and display them in a dropdown/radio-button/checkbox for the user to select, dynamically, every time the build is triggered.
You can use EnvInject plugin to read value(s) from a file and inject them into the build as environment variables, so that they can be used by the rest of the build steps/scripts.
Your question is very unclear on what your are trying to do. Pick one of the 3 methods above based on what you need, or clarify your question.
I'm evaluating install4j. The installer I'm trying to create uses a passwort text field. The value of this field should be written to the response var file as encoded value. Additional the installer must allow two installation paths:
a normal path ("advanced") that allows the user to see every screen and check/enter every value - using this path, the password field works fine.
a simple path that should use all values of a former installation that was succesful, to allow the user to start an update installation without seeing all screens.
Using the simple path (without showing the screen that contains the password field) it seems that at installation time only the encoded variable ("passwordField".encoded) is available but not the "real" password variable. Is there a chance to get the "real" password variable without showing the screen that contains this variable - maybe by using some kind of "decoding method"?
Thank you very much for your help!
Frank
Add another password component with the same variable to a screen that is shown on the simple path and set its visibility expression to "false". Then that invisible component will update the variable with the decoded value.
