Hi Piyu_sarda,

 

If you provided us with a sample project where this issue is reproduced, I would pass it to our Dev Team so that they could investigate this.

Hi Tanya,

 

Finally after a good number of hours, I came to know the root cause of this issue. The response JSON contains a empty line at the top which SOAP UI is not able to process. Although the JSON view of Response in the Test Step shows a valid JSON but when performing a property transfer, it looks like it is picking up from raw response which has an empty line at the top. My dev team is not going to definitely fix this in a shorter term as the our APIs are used by other applications and no one complained about it.

 

Is there a way in SOAP UI to get around it? I have replicated this issue with a sample project. Do you still need it or the details are sufficient to replicate this?

 

Thanks,

Piyu
