How to replace GET path variable from CSV file in JMeter?
I'm trying to replace a variable in the GET path without using any parameter name/value combination as the REST API is using ODATA format.
Example: http://localhost/GetEmployeeData('EMP12345')
In my JMeter script, I have added HTTP Request and set the path like this:
/GetEmployeeData('${empid}')
In my CSV file, I have a single column defined like this:
empid EMP12345
In CSV Dataset config, I'm pointing to the CSV file and setting the variable name to empid.
What I'm doing wrong?. I get a bad request error and the ${empid} is not getting replaced from the CSV file.
Please help.
We cannot help without seeing your configuration so for the time being I can give you only few pieces of advice:
- Check jmeter.log file for any suspicious entries, in the absolute majority of cases you should be able to figure out the failure reason from it
- Use full path to the CSV file instead of relative. If it helps - check out where JMeter is looking for the file by the relative path and move it into that folder.
Try replacing the CSV Data Set Config with __StringFromFile() or __CSVRead() functions, the syntax would be:
/GetEmployeeData('${__StringFromFile(/path/to/file.csv,,,)}')/GetEmployeeData('${__CSVRead(/path/to/file.csv,0)}')
