    Hello,

    If I correctly understood your question, you are asking in what order to place these TestSteps to get the desired loop functionality?

    The sequence is:

    DataSource
    Request 1 (uses DataSource)
    ...
    Request n (uses DataSource)
    DataSourceLoop (configured with DataSource Step: DataSource and Target Step: Request 1 )

    This setup will run the requests 1-n inside the loop, once for each row in the DataSource. If you only have one Request that uses the DataSource, then you would only have one step inbetween the DataSource and the DataSourceLoop.

    Hope this is what you were looking for!
