Extract an attribute value from JSON request when running standalone wiremock server

I want to extract an attribute's value from JSON request body coming in a request in a running standalone wiremock server and use the value in the response. Is there any way to this dynamically.

For example, if below is the request body :

{
    "name": "Dummy-Name"
}

I should be able to extract the value of name attribute and send it in the response like below:

{"Request_Name": "Dummy-Name"}

Solution

  • You can use the Request model and JsonPath helpers to achieve this.

    ...
    "response": {
        "body": "{ "Request_Name": {{jsonPath request.body '$.name'}} }"
    }
...

    Note: you will need to enable response templating before this will work.
