Suppose I have the following Json response
[
{
id: 1,
name: "John",
password: "JohnsPassword54",
},
{
id: 2,
name: "David",
password: "DavidsPassword24",
}
]
Then how can I extract the array with name David to do further validation?
e.g. I want to say if name == David then save the id
Well done :) Mastering Json-Path is key to get the most out of Karate !
Just for the sake of demo, here is another option, using the get keyword to get the first element out of the array returned, as Json-Path wildcard searches always return an array:
* def response =
"""
[
{
id: 1,
name: "John",
password: "JohnsPassword54"
},
{
id: 2,
name: "David",
password: "DavidsPassword24"
}
]
"""
* def userId = get[0] response $[?(@.name == 'David')].id
* match userId == 2
I found the solution in the Json expression evaluation -
def user = $..[?(@.name == 'David')]
Then I can use the following -
def userId = user[0].id
