Situation:
Using recording with Jmeter I have generated a list of api requests. The way my test object works is that when you login using UI it creates a key for the entire session (which also keeps on changing), however there is an option of having a static api key for a user that you can use for all requests when sending the api requests NOT using the UI of my software.
Problem:
I have a list of api requests that I want to test but I would like to overwrite only one variable in the header of all my api requests (i.e. adding the static api key).
Is there a way of overwriting only one variable in all (most of) the headers?
The Header Manager lets you add or override HTTP request headers.
Create a header manager at the top and enter the common value. This value will be send with all the headers.
For more information check the below link:-
https://www.blazemeter.com/blog/using-jmeters-http-header-manager
Hope this helps.
Add/Copy desired HTTP Header Manager above the Thread Group OR above Recording Controller and remove/disable all HTTP Header Manager inside request samplers, all request samplers will use the Main HTTP Header by default.
Cheers!

To provide some custom caching via a webextension, I use web_accessible_resources and redirect accesses towards them in a background script – see my previous question for details.
While that works content wise, I cannot find a way to change the response headers of the cached content, for example the Last-Modified header. So when I cache content that the original website does some consistence checks on, this will fail.
I tried to intercept the redirected response with an onHeadersReceived handler, but this never triggers as “Only requests made using HTTP or HTTPS will trigger events” and my redirect uses the moz-extension:// protocol.
How does one set response headers when serving web_accessible_resources?
Is it possible at all?
I have designed an API REST service (with Bonita) to which I can perfectly connect with Postman, with the following parameters:
By the way, the x-www-form-urlencoded option that is selected comes from the Content-type application/x-www-form-urlencoded header that is not displayed in my screenshot. The official Bonita specification states that this header is needed and I always get a 200-OK status code as an answer.
How can I specify an equivalent request with the body part in a Mendix Call REST service in a microflow? Here is what I have so far:
I guess the body part should be specified in the Request tab, but I just don't know how to do it properly. I always get the following error message for my connector, which means that, whatever I specify, the username is not taken into account:
An error has occurred while handling the request. [User 'Anonymous_69a378ed-bb56-4183-ae71-c9ead783db1f' with session id '5fefb6ad-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXXXXXXb34f' and roles 'Administrator']
I finally found that the proxy setting was the actual problem. It was set at the project scope and simply clicking on No proxy in the General tab did the trick! (both services are hosted on my local machine so far)
I just had to fill in the dedicated Authentication field in the HTTP Headers tab then, with the correct credentials, to eventually log in my Bonita service.
Does Syncfusion Dashboard web data source support POST http methods?
If yes, so how set it up?
Thanks!
HTTP Post requests additional data from client to server in the message body, where message body will be like JSON, XML, TEXT etc. This may result in the creation of a new resource or the updates of existing resources or both. In contrast, HTTP Get requests include all required data in the URL. So we support HTTP Get method since POST method is not valid use case.

My org is trying to use JMeter as part of a test automation suite to test some back end REST APIs. Currently one of them supports using JSON queries as a way to get filtered results back from a GET request.
We are using the JMeter UI to create these tests and since all the other API calls work under the HttpClient3.1 HTTP Request implementation that is the implementation that I am currently using to get this to work. With this implementation I get the following when looking at the failure in the results tree (response data portion) I have made the error slightly more generic to protect some IP:
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Invalid uri 'https://server:port/restservice/v1/users?firstname_query={"in":["User1FirstName","User2FirstName"]}': Invalid query

I have also tried the same request using the Java implementation and get a similar result.
If anyone has any ideas or if you need more information let me know and thank you again in advance for any help you may be able to provide.
Your HTTP Request configuration is a little bit incorrect. JSON entities contain braces {} which are not allowed in URLs so you need to encode them.
Configure your HTTP Request sampler like:
Make sure "Encode" box is ticked.
And this way you will be able to send JSON with HTTP GET Requests. You can use View Results Tree listener to inspect request and response details:
You might also need to add HTTP Header Manager to your Test Plan and configure it to send Content-Type header with the value of application/json. See Testing SOAP/REST Web Services Using JMeter article for more details on properly configuring JMeter for testing REST APIs.
Is it possible to modify a property of a change request by using the OSLC-CM REST API of a change management system. The system that I'm trying to achieve that is Rational Change.
I can browse and query via the REST API, but to modify anything I need to resort to command line which is rather slow.
Is there a way?
BR,

To update resources using the OSLC-CM REST API you simply just can use HTTP PUT. In order to do this, you'll first need the URL of the Change Request.
The steps to achieve this (using any HTTP client) are:
acquire URL for Change Request (usually done by query, or stored reference, etc)
Perform an HTTP GET on that URL, specifying a format for use in editing. This is done using 'Accept' header, some typical values would be 'application/xml', 'application/json' or 'application/rdf+xml'.
Note, it is a good idea to set the header 'OSLC-Core-Verson: 2.0' as well to ensure you are working with the 2.0 formats.
Once you have fetched the resource, modify the property to the value you want.
Using HTTP PUT, send the modified resource in the content body to the same URL you fetched the resource from.
Additionally you will most likely need to pass along some additional headers to help the server detect any possible conflict.
You should get back a 200 (OK) or 204 (No content) response on success.
An optimization would be to do the same steps as above but only request the properties of interest and only send them by using the selective properties feature of OSLC.
So I've finally got it working with some help from googlegroups
To recap what I've done so that someone else might benefit too (I really have searched for it and the IBM documentation is as in most of the cases not helping):
So to modify PR/CR' implement_actual_effort attribute on the Rational Change server the following procedure was successful (using Firefox REST plugin):
1. In Headers set: Accept to application/xml, Content-Type to application/xml
Put the oslc address of the cr i URL in my case it was:
http://[IP:PORT]/change/oslc/db/[DB hex ID]/role/User/cr/[web_encoded_name_of_the_CR]?oslc_cm.properties=change:implement_actual_effort
(note in browser http://[IP:PORT]/change/oslc/db/[DB hex ID]/role/User/cr/[web_encoded_name_of_the_CR] will open change page of the CR/PR)
In REST client set Method to GET and press SEND
Click on the Response Body (RAW), copy xml Body
Change Method to PUT, change the value of the attribute (in the xml in Body window)
Press SEND
Attribute should have been changed right now, and the response should be similiar to what you've sent, with the attribute showing the change.
Note that to change an attribute (called property from oslc point of view) one has to provide ?oslc_cm.properties=[properties delimited with comma]
and in the request body xml the same properties have to be present, if I remember correctly if the property isn't mentioned in the xml it will be set to default
I hope this helps someone
