How to Parse SOAP response which contains a JSON with in it as a variable contains authtoken to further use in next request

harsh.vardhan · August 29, 2022, 9:44am

Hello Everyone,

Someone can help me out here as i am totally new with Katalon Studio things with Groovy.

My Question is as below:
A Login request which is in SOAP

<s:Envelope xmlns:s="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/">
  <s:Body>
    <LoginUser xmlns="http://tempuri.org/">
      <parameters>{ "LoginId": "${GlobalVariable.baseloginid}", "Password": "${GlobalVariable.baseloginidpassword}", "DeviceId": "Deviceid1","LogoutFromWebsite": "true","DeviceName":"${GlobalVariable.DeviceName}","IpAddress":"${GlobalVariable.IpAddress}","StartMode":"1"}</parameters>
    </LoginUser>
  </s:Body>
</s:Envelope>

Its response is below:

<s:Envelope xmlns:s="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/">
  <s:Body>
    <LoginUserResponse xmlns="http://tempuri.org/">
      <LoginUserResult>{"AuthenticationToken":"eyJ0eXAiOiJKV1QiLCJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiJ9.eyJzdWIiOiJWYWxpZGF0aW9uIFRva2VuIiwiaXNzIjoiRGV2aWNlaWQxIiwiZXhwIjoiOS8yOC8yMDIyIDY6MDQ6MTAgUE0iLCJhdWQiOiJhMzIwYzRhYzIwZDIwMWY5MGViYWNlZTU4MzdjOTExZSJ9.WBejY4jbPoMW3J7RTwqlh-vIdRzSuKq98GjYk9IImHw","LoginId":"User 3","DeviceName":"Device 1","Status":"200","Code":0}
      </LoginUserResult>
    </LoginUserResponse>
  </s:Body>
</s:Envelope>

Now i want to make AuthenticationToken as a Global variable to use in some other request which is required.

As i am using Test Listener before the Test Suite execution

class Authentication {
	/**
	 * Executes before every test suite starts.
	 * @param testSuiteContext: related information of the executed test suite.
	 */
	private void setToken()
		{
	//set token to global variable 'Token'
	def authentication_response = 	WS.sendRequest(findTestObject('Object Repository/Login'))
	
	WS.verifyResponseStatusCode(authentication_response, 200, FailureHandling.STOP_ON_FAILURE)
	
	def response = new XmlSlurper().parseText(authentication_response.getResponseBodyContent())
	
	print response.LoginUserResponse.LoginUserResult
	
	println (response.LoginUserResponse.LoginUserResult)
	
	JsonSlurper slurper = new JsonSlurper()
	Map parsedJson_Authentication2 = slurper.parseText(response.LoginUserResponse.LoginUserResult)

	KeywordUtil.logInfo("TOKEN received:    " + parsedJson_Authentication2.AuthenticationToken)

	GlobalVariable.Token = parsedJson_Authentication2.AuthenticationToken
	
	KeywordUtil.logInfo("TOKEN set to Global variable :    " + GlobalVariable.Token)
}

	@BeforeTestSuite
		def beforeTestSuite()
		{
			//set global variables
			setToken()	
		}
}

Console Log:

In your code you have some statements that call “println” “WebUI.comment”. What did you see?

Please tell us the messages you saw in the LogViewer and the Console log.

kazurayam · August 29, 2022, 11:39am

What is LoginUserResponse? What is LoginUserResult? I do not find these 2 names in the XML document presented above, so I havd no idea why you use these 2 names in the print xxxx statement.

Did you edit the XML document above to shorten the previous post? Did you remove a <LoginUserRepose> element and a <LoginUserResult> element? If so, don’t do that. That makes it impossible for others to understand you. Please share the whole XML document.

Hi @kazurayam , due to copy paste actual response not visible, now please check.

And also Console Log has been updated in original post.

kazurayam · August 29, 2022, 1:43pm

This error was caused by the following statement in your test case script:

def response = new XmlSlurper().parseText(authentication_response.getResponseBodyContent())

The method call getResponseBodyContent() returned an instance of groovy.util.slurpersupport.NodeChildren, not a String. So the error occured.

You need the text value of the NodeChildren object.

According to the GroovyDoc at NodeChildren (Groovy 2.4.6)

you could try

def response = new XmlSlurper().parseText(authentication_response.getResponseBodyContent().text())

Hi @kazurayam i tired but still giving error in Console.

kazurayam · August 30, 2022, 11:36am

please report with detail information. Withoug information disclosed others can not understand you.
