    In this use case, there is no need even to create map, then loop thru it and put the entries in Properties test step. Can be directly added to Properties step after the first split('&').

    Here it goes the simplified further:

    def properties = context.testCase.testSteps["Properties"]
def str = 'https://whatevs.azurewebsites.net/path?token=eyJ0eXAiOiJKV1Qi&value=123456789'
new URL(str).query?.split('&').each {
	properties.setPropertyValue(it.split('=').first(), it.split('=').last())
}

Hey nmrao 

This is brilliant!  Thanks man - really, really appreciate the help - especially your notes on breaking down the methods in that 'def str....' line

Also great that you gave me an alternative  - a more efficient way of grabbing the values and passing to a Properties step - will really help me getting back into my scripting.

Cheers!
