Can I take the values from one scenario and pass it to the Performance Scenario and execute all data-sets paralelly using Karate-Gatling

I have implemented Karate for Functional Regression API Tests and Karate-Gatling for Performance tests with static data and it works great. Now there is a requirement where in I have to use multiple data set from one earlier scenario and pass this data set to Performance scenarios and then execute all the data-sets parallelly. My Base scenario which will generate the data will be -

Scenario: Get the list of Product ID
     Given url url
     When method GET
     Then status 200
     * def productids = $[*].productID

Each request will contain around 5 Product ID's and this will be used again to perform a GET in Product scenario as shown below

Scenario: Product Scenario
    Given url baseUrl + productids
    When method GET
    Then status 200

Now the requirement is to run Performance Tests for Product Scenario for all the product ID's obtained from the 1st scenario parallelly. i.e.: 10 threads of productID1, 10 threads of productID2, 10 threads of productID3 all of them should be triggered parallelly

Is this possible to implement via Karate-Gatling ?

Thanks

I also had the same requirement, but it doesn't really allow sharing the data between scenarios easily.

The workaround I did was -

  1. Create a lightweight spring boot REST+JPA app which runs on localhost and expose POST and GET methods for the data I need.
  2. At the end of the 1st scenario, post the data I need into the this app in .silent POST requests.
  3. At the start of the 2nd scenario, read the data from the app using GET method (again in .silent mode)
