Script to traverse in response to get data, then insert data to a request

Hi, a newbie in soapUI Pro 3.0.2.  I need to be able to parse through an XML response to check for a value, if true grab another value in the same type, and insert that data value in another request. ...

Assuming you want the first "Approved" value, why not do use a PropertyTransfer step.

Set the source step to be the initial request, the source property 'ResponseAsXML' and the XPath like this:

[tt:35u4nv8f]declare namespace a='http://company.com/definition/2009/08/someservice';
//DataTypes/a:DataType[a:Status='Approved']/a:Number[/tt:35u4nv8f]

Make the target a Properties step, then use a property expansion to insert the value in the request XML of the next request.

Make sure to check "Transfer Text Content" checkbox in the PropertyTransfer step.
