    Hi,

     

    Firstly I would like to thanks for your help but is is not the answer that I want. Maybe I don't make it clear enough and it makes you to be confused.

     

    Allow me to specify again my case:

     

    - I have an POST request which aims to authenticate user's login and password.

    - This request body is the following one:

    <root><type>SQL</type><p1>cpt_tm45</p1><p2>smart</p2><p3>0</p3><p5></p5><p6></p6><p7></p7><p8>00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000</p8><p9></p9></root>

    - And as you can see, value in p1 represents user login and the one in p2 represents user password.

    - Now, I have a csv file containing user login and password. Format of this file is:

      cpt_tm46;smart

      cpt_tm47;smart

     

    => So, I would like to have something like <root><type>SQL</type><p1>@username</p1><p2>@password</p2><p3>0</p3><p5></p5><p6></p6><p7></p7><p8>00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000</p8><p9></p9></root>

    , and @username and @password are extracted from my csv file.

     

    This will help me to have a request body like this:

    <root><type>SQL</type><p1>cpt_tm46</p1><p2>smart</p2><p3>0</p3><p5></p5><p6></p6><p7></p7><p8>00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000</p8><p9></p9></root> if the first line is read 

     

    AND

     

    <root><type>SQL</type><p1>cpt_tm47</p1><p2>smart</p2><p3>0</p3><p5></p5><p6></p6><p7></p7><p8>00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000</p8><p9></p9></root> if the second line is read

     

    Could we do that with any feature of LoadComplete?

     

    Regards.

      Hi,

       

      I still stuck with this issue. Here I was trying these following solutions that I could imagine but they doesn't work:

       1 - I created the csv file which contains body request, which is ;

             <root><type>SQL</type><p1>cpt_tm80</p1><p2>smart</p2><p3>0</p3><p5></p5><p6></p6><p7></p7><p8>00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000</p8><p9></p9></root>

             <root><type>SQL</type><p1>cpt_tm81</p1><p2>smart</p2><p3>0</p3><p5></p5><p6></p6><p7></p7><p8>00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000</p8><p9></p9></root>

       

      but in log, request body is encoded, so I abandoned this solution.

       

      2 - I created a second csv file, which contains :

            cpt_tm80;smart

            cpt_tm81;smart

       

      and in the request body, I edited it to obtain something like : <root><type>SQL</type><p1>@username</p1><p2>@password</p2><p3>0</p3><p5></p5><p6></p6><p7></p7><p8>00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000</p8><p9></p9></root>

       

      but once again, it still fail.

       

      Please note that in my case, I have many requests which are very similar to this one. It means I have many request for which the request body contains only one field which is represented in format XML with many values to be parameterized and I have no value. 

       

      If I can't do it, then it is very hard to convince my boss about the advantages that LoadComplete bring to us since with JMeter, we can do it easily.

       

      Many thanks and regards

        Hi,

         

        As WesleyG said, you can use a Data Replacer.

         

        In your case it should look like:

         

        The data correlation rule is Get text between two values
