i am using robotframework with jemetr to automate my API.I am trying to pass the below json data from robotframework script to jmeter but it is getting failed and if i reduce the json data size it is working fine.Please let me know whether there is any limitation and if yes what is the workaround.
JSON data:
{"fordate(dd-mm-yyyy)":"21-04-2021","user_id":"1","outlet_id":"10","warehouse_id":"1","skunit_id":"1","Quantity(case)":"","Quantity(units)":"2","Auto Scheme Apply":"","unitprice":"23","po_number":"","po_deliveryTime(dd-mm-yyyy)":"2021-04-22","id":"jqg1"}
Robot keyword:
Run Jmeter ${jmeter} ${jmxPath} ${logPath} -Jmdmpath=${mdmpath} -Jtestname=${TEST_NAME} -Jmdmid=75 -Jjsondata=${json}
Json data is passed via variable ${json}
Error:
10:37:27.702 FAIL JMeterLibException: 'Value returned by JMeter: 1'
10:37:27.702 DEBUG Traceback (most recent call last):

Put your ${json} in quotation marks like:
-Jjsondata='${json}'
or make sure to escape all the special characters with a backslash \ in your JSON
A better idea would be passing the path to the JSON file and reading the file in JMeter script using __FileToString() function. If you have multiple files in a folder it makes sense to use Directory Listing Config
