How to extract data from URL in json node

[sukanya]

I just want to extract navTok value in the Next link actually.

for example :

"NEXT" :"https://localhost:8080/navTok=72638726387sjhgfdsjfgsj82364"

The thing is i need to extract the navTok value using groovy script.

Please do the needful on this.

Do you have a groovy script you are working with already? If so, we can likely build off of that.

I actually want to extract the Next value and store it in a value named "NextLink"  and also i need to extract the navTok value from the below Json response

Hi @sukanya

Here you go, just look at below code snippet and modify it accordingly if you need any:

//This is for extracting Next Link data
//imports
import groovy.json.JsonSlurper

//grab the response
def ResponseMessage = messageExchange.response.responseContent

//define a JsonSlurper
def jsonSlurper = new JsonSlurper().parseText(ResponseMessage)

//verify the slurper isn't empty
assert !(jsonSlurper.isEmpty())

def NextData = jsonSlurper.Links.Next
//it will store the value of Next in TestCase level properties
context.testCase.setPropertyValue("NextData",NextData)


//This is For navTok Data

NextData = NextData.toString()
strLen = NextData.length()

if(NextData.contains("navTok"))
{	
	navtokIndex = NextData.lastIndexOf("navTok")
	navtokIndex = navtokIndex + 7
	navtokString = NextData.substring(navtokIndex, strLen)
	context.testCase.setPropertyValue("navTokData",navtokString)	
}
else
{
       assert(true:false):"String not found"
}

Do mark it as a solution if it fulfills your need.

Thanks for your solution. I am trying it to work out. Will post it as soon as I am done.

//grab the response
def ResponseMessage = messageExchange.response.responseContent

Thank for your inputs. 

1. After running the RESTRequst, got the response in SoapUI.

2. Would like to grab the above response(Point# 1) and assign it to the variable "ResponseMessage". Please refer the attached screen shots and advise on this.

//grab the response
def ResponseMessage = messageExchange.response.responseContent

With this code you saved your response in variable named ResponseMessage.

I am not getting where are you stucking?

or what you exactly wanna do?

Thanks,

I am actually new to groovy. I just want to know how we can save the response In a variable.

[sukanya]

Below mentioned is my json response. I just want to get the Next link and store it in a NextLink named property. also i need to get navTok value for all the next urls in the response. Can you please let me know what are all the properties I need to add at property transfer step and also at data source step.

Hi @sukanya

The code which i provided above will do the same which you want to do

Copy and paste it in script assertion

And it will save you Dara in testcase level property
