Thanks Sagar,

You have been really helpful.

Could you please help me once more. I am trying to run a test in JMeter now able to login and logout(with the help of the hints provided above by you - thanks) but when I try to trigger a POST request my test fails at that request.

So logging in and logging out are both GET request and it passes. But I am trying to perform an action to navigate to a different page bu POSTING some payload to an end-point and this step is failing in Jmeter. I have tried everything and compared my manual request and Jmeter request they look exactly the same.

I do not know what is wrong. I am running out of options and I need help. Could you please look into this.

PS: If you want I can give you the JMX file to better analyse the issue(just email me your personal email address @ravi.yadav@lands.wa.gov.au)

Thanks,

Ravi,

You might need to understand on how SAIL evaluation works and below link will help you in doing that - docs.appian.com/.../SAIL_Performance.html.

Once you record using Jmeter , you will find two components in encoded formats in most of the requests -

1) Context - To get context you have to add JSON path extractor as part of the response of request

JSON path for context - $.context

2) SaveInto - To get saveInto - you must know which component saveinto was evaluated in that request and then using JSON path you can get that from previous response.

JSON path - $..primaryButtons[?(@.label==Next)].saveInto[0]

Once you have those two parameters - pass it to further request -

E.g. - {"context":${CONTEXT}, "updates":{"#v":[{"saveInto":["${SAVE_INTO}"], "value":{"#v":1, "#t":"int"}}], "#t":"SaveRequest?list"}, "uuid":"2a53f523-7457-4788-a798-748a73c98bbc", "#t":"UiConfig"}
