Passing a json node (rather than the node's value) to a Property

Bill_In_Irvine@New2API,

guys - thanks so much - I've tried both options but I'm still struggling so would welcome if you could answer some follow up questions based on your scripts.

@Bill_In_Irvine

I edited your script as you suggested, but I'm getting a runtime error 

The edited script is as follows:

import groovy.json.JsonBuilder
 
def json = new JsonBuilder()
def nodeName = context.expand('${#Project#CPnode_name}').toString()
 
def id1 = "1"
def id2 = "2"
def Outcome = "NewCall"
def StatusCode = "0"
 
def nodeValue = json "$id" : id2,
                           StatusCode : StatusCode,
                           Outcome : Outcome
 
def root = json "$id" : id1,
                 "$nodeName" nodeValue
 
def restRequest = testRunner.testCase.getTestStepByName("GET Request - GET EOD Results");
restRequest.setPropertyValue('Request', json.toString())

Runtime error at line 12 which is the line that contains 

def nodeValue = json "$id" : id2,

The error response is 'MissingPropertyException: No such property: id for class:' 

I'm sorry my groovy is rubbish - I've tried playing around with the line and the one before and after it - but I've had no luck.  Can you advise?

So - that's the questions for Bill_In_Irvine all done

I updated your script to the following - but I'm struggling to write the data out to a property - your script is below:

import net.sf.json.groovy.*
import groovy.json.JsonSlurper

def responseCntent = context.expand( '${REST Request - GET EOD Results#Response}' )

def json = new JsonSlurper().parseText responseCntent

def jNode

 json.each{
 	       if(it.key.contains("GUID")){
 	                                  log.info it.key
 	                                  jNode = it.key
 	                                  //or store it in some property 
 	       }
 }

Now I was playing around with something I've used before (courtesy of @msiadak) which assigned a variable to the attribute value I wanted in the XML and allowed me to pass this to the properties step (as follows)

def syncID = (holder["//Responses/VenueSyncSuccesses/VenueSyncSuccess/@VenueID"])
        def propertiesStep = context.testCase.testSteps["Properties"];
propertiesStep.setPropertyValue("VenueID", syncID);

I tried doing something like this for the .json - however - the info response the script currently returns is the whole .json response - I'm failing to see how I can extract ONLY the node names from this - dont I need to parse the .json and grab the GUID node names?  And even then I can't see how something like this would work for my .json because those node names are dynamic based on the records - i.e. the node name changes for each record returned in the results.

Also - I cant see what the jNode variable is doing.  It doesn't appear to add anything to the current script nor the script results.

as I say - my scripting skills are rubbish so I'm no doubt missing some obvious piece of info.

Many thanks guys for all your help in this - you're really helping me out here.
