Apoorva6,
Alternatively,&nbsp;the Script Assertion (now Property Transfer step becomes obsolete) can be used for the first step.
&nbsp;
assert context.response, 'Response is empty or null'
def json = new groovy.json.JsonSlurper().parseText(context.response)
context.testCase.setPropertyValue('ACCOUNT_NO', json.invoiceNodeDetails.account1Number.toString())

In the second request use Property Transfer ${#TestCase#ACCOUNT_NO}
&nbsp;
i.e.,&nbsp;"accountNumber": "${#TestCase#ACCOUNT_NO}",

Did you change the path language to JSON?&nbsp;JSONPath expression could be$.invoiceNodeDetails.account1Numberor$..invoiceNodeDetails[0].account1Number

paulms · Answer

This option might have been included in version 5.2 with JSONPath-based assertions

The language is visible next to the source and target in the image here

Hi Paul, Thanks for the reply. I am using 5.0.0 open source and i dont see language path in property transfer. Do i need to click anywhere to appear?

apoorva6 · Answer

Thank you Paul and Rao. Will use the script and see, but also,

I migrated to 5.3.0 version and see now JasonPath in property transfer, However I see transferred values are coming with square braces when transferred. Any idea why ?

"accountNumber": ["8290000000717"]

I am using $..invoiceNodeDetails[:1].account1Number at Source and $..userDetails[:1].accountNumber at target with both JasonPath

nmrao · Answer

It is not about square brackets. That is a list of accountNumbers.
