"Get Data" in a test step doesn't work from different test case or test suite.

In SOAP UI PRO

In a test step, if we want to get some data from different test case, It does not give me any options, but on the other hand, if I try getting data from different test steps in the same test case, it works out.

Is there anything or any ways, I shall be able to get the property data like response from one test step can be used in the different test case in the different test suite.

    Hi!

    The preferred way to share data between testcases/testsuites is via a common property at the testsuite/project level that can be accessed by both; the first testcase contains a property-transfer that transfers the value to the property, the second reads (via Get Data) this property. This reduces tight coupling between testcases, but if that's not a problem and/or the above doesn't work out for you, you can use a groovy-script instead to read/write the desired properties..
