Hi there, I am assuming that this is a data driven test and data is being used by a REST test step. you could add a groovy step to read Datasource data and dynamically update testcase name on the run.&nbsp;for Ex: your test case structure would be&nbsp;DatasourceGroovy ScriptRestStepDataSource Loop&nbsp;Groovy script://Variables to store datasource values
def TestData = context.expand( '${DataSource#Row}' )

//## get REST Step Name and dynamically change//
def RestStep = testRunner.testCase.getTestStepAt(2)
    RestStep.setName("RestStep_$TestData")&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;

Hi, your data source loop should go back groovy script in order get a new row value and update your test case.for ex:&nbsp;attached image shows sample data source values.&nbsp;lets assume if you want to append values from TestCaseName for each iteration then groovy script line should be -&nbsp;&nbsp;def testInput = context.expand('${DataSource#TestCaseName}')&nbsp;then follow steps mentioned in previous post.&nbsp;TestCase.PNG image shows DataSource loop configuration.&nbsp;&nbsp;
