     Thank you, KarelHusa, 

     

    I tried the #testcase#todate solution, didn't quite work for me. However, I discovered a custom properties tab where I can access the values I was looking for without adding too much work for myself.   My Groovy script will use the line of code context.expand to access those values using  #testStep#propertyname. Thank you for pointing me in the direction of looking for information.

Hi,

 

Your question is not completely clear.

 

My take is that you want to 'pull' a value from the Groovy script step and put that value into the 'to-date' parameter for the service call.

 

The syntax for getting the result from a Groovy script step is.... ${Name of Groovy Script step#result}.  The '#result' bit is important, it tells SoapUI to get the returned result from the script.  Also ensure your Groovy script has a return statement at the end.  E.g.

 

 

def someValueToReturn = '17-JAN-2022';

return someValueToReturn;
