Override Content-Length

Is there a way to override Content-Length in rest request?
I need to set 'Length' header to be the same as Content-Length...

    Hello,

    Unfortunately the only way to do this is using groovy. We do not really support groovy scripting but see if the below helps you.

    Put the below script in a RequestFilter.filterRequest event. It should do what you are asking for:


    def headerValue = context.testCase.getTestStepByName("REST Test Request").httpRequest.messageExchange.getRequestHeaders()["Length"]

    def headers = request.requestHeaders
    headers.put( "Content-Length", headerValue )
    request.requestHeaders = headers
