    Hey subhaD,

    You can actually do whst you need without using any groovy script at all...the native functionality will do what you need.
    If you search the help for handling CDATA from a response from the readyapi! help, you cant use the same property inside a property method to do what you need.

Hi,

 

A couple of points.  An example response would be good to help us understand what you are facing.

 

Also, you talk about HTML in a JSON tag, but you're trying to tease out the details using XML Slurper.  

 

If it's XML you want to work with, maybe try :-

def response = context.expand( '${REST Request#ResponseAsXml#$[\'data\'][\'meta\'][\'fields\'][0][\'message\']}' ).toString();
