    1. Like it was mentioned earlier, you don't load from properties step

    2. Please see the attached screen shot.

    - Test case has custom property DATA_FILE where you provide the property file name

    - In the setup script, use code from below script

    https://github.com/nmrao/soapUIGroovyScripts/blob/master/groovy/testCaseSetup/LoadPropertiesFromFile.groovy

    - You always run the test case (not individual test step, specially when property file content is changed)

Please provide screen shots of test case, the file in which data is the and REST request step where you want to pass values. And how it is expected.

      Thanks for that.

      What type of file are you loading in step1? Is it comma separated file? Sample data would help.

      So you wanted to put the data  into Step2 as parameter values which are read from file?

      Not sure of the significance of step3.

        Sorry for the delay in responding.

         

        I have attached the file. It seems to be working because the step that loads the parameters from the file is showing the correct values. They are just not being passed to step 2.. Step 3 is transferring the response to a custom project property that I use in my integration with my test tool.
