View Assertion Value in SoapUI

Hi,   I am doing REST testing and have made assertions to validate the JSon files. My question is, is there a way to view the assertion value only ? The web services I'm running creates a productId...

    Since I dont have the exact JSON response, using an assumed response as below to show how to assert the value

     

    Json Response :

    {
  "widget": {     
              "debug": "on",     
              "window": {         
                          "title": "Sample Konfabulator Widget",
                          "name": "main_window",
                          "width": 500,
                          "height": 500     
               },
              "image": {          
                          "src": "Images/Sun.png",         
                          "name": "sun1",
                          "hOffset": 250,
                          "vOffset": 250,
                          "alignment": "center"     
              },
              "text": {         
                          "data": "Click Here",         
                          "size": 36,         
                          "style": "bold",
                          "name": "text1",
                          "hOffset": 250,
                          "vOffset": 100,
                          "alignment": "center",         
                          "onMouseUp": "sun1.opacity = (sun1.opacity / 100) * 90;"
              }
   }
}

    Here we are going to check the value of widget -> window -> title

     

    Here is the code block for script assertion for the rest step:

     

    import net.sf.json.groovy.JsonSlurper
def response =new JsonSlurper().parseText(messageExchange.responseContent)
//In your case the path of the required element as mentioned below
def expectedValue = response.widget.window.title
    //asserting that response does not have a null    
assert null != expectedValue, "Response does not contain value"
    //optionally, you can log the value from response
    log.info "Value received in the response for the element is : ${expectedValue}"

It is, but I would like to know the value of my product because it changes every time I run the service. I want to verify that a new product is there. Any help/input would be great. Thank You

Ok. It would be of help if you can show the response, so that what kind of assertion would be fit. By the way, is it an autogenerated id or as per the user input value that it will be created by web service?

    The ID is auto-generated. Right now I has a JSon path existence assertion for the ID. Every time I run it I get a new ID. Thanks
