I have a file, which I want to send to a server from the postman.
I put the file into request body manually, but I want to use it in all of my requests.
Is it possible to create a variable, which will take a file from my computer and put it to request body?

I have a problem with sending files to some API. When I do it via my server some pdf files send correctly but some not. But when I send the same pdf via POSTMAN everything works just fine. I am not sure what is the reason (probably POSTMAN encodes it into base64 but from my server, I send it in binary - just a guess). Is there a way to get the sent request file content from postman so that I can imitate it and compare with the request on my server?
I want to save examples in postman. I know how to do that. But request is saved with variable placeholders if request contains any.
For example if request is something like:
{
id: {{someId}}
}}
In this example look the same way as request body - with variable place holder. Now I open console, open request body, copy and then paste in example's request. It is time consuming. Is there a way to force postman to save example with variable values?
In Qmetry, I am calling below soap api request.
user requests 'post.sample.call'
Want to save the response in a xml file (sample.xml). Save response to "sample.xml"
Is there a step in qmetry to achieve this?
If purpose to save response for later reference, you will be able to find it under command log tab in qaf report. If you want to validate response you can utilize methods available with qaf we service support library. For any other purpose if you want to write response to file use get response from test base and write to file. Below code will give you response to write in file.
String responseBody = new RestTestBase().getResponse().getMessageBody();
I am kinda newby in python thus the question.
I am trying to create a simple http web server that can receive chunked data from a post request.
I have realized later that once a request sends a headers with chunked data, the Content-length headers will be set to zero, thus reading the sent data with 'request.get_data()' will fail.
Is there another way of reading the chunked data?
The request I receive does give me the data length in the 'X-Data-Length' headers.
Did you write both of the js upload file code and the flask in backend to handle upload request? If not then you will need some help with js to upload it.
One way to achieve chucked data upload is:
Chucked that file in the frontend with js. Give it some headers in the request for the total size, number of the chunk, chunk size... and send each chuck in a separate POST request (You can use dropzone.js for example, they will do the job for you, just need to config the params)
In the backend, create an upload API which will read the request headers and merge the file chunks back together
How can I attach a file to the environment in order to launch the collection in the Postman collection runner? The file is attached to the form-data, and manually the request runs ok, but as soon as I run it in the collection runner, the runner doesn't see the file and the 500 Internal server error occurs. How can this issue be fixed?
Request BodySee the full detail in the link
While constructing requests, you’ll work frequently with the request body editor. Postman lets you send almost any kind of HTTP request. The body editor is divided into 4 areas and has different controls, depending on the body type.
Note about Headers: When you are sending requests through the HTTP protocol, your server might expect a Content-Type header. The Content-Type header allows the server to parse the body properly. For form-data and urlencoded body types, Postman automatically attaches the correct Content-Type header so you don’t have to set it. The raw mode header is set when you select the formatting type. If you manually use a Content-Type header, that value takes precedence over what Postman sets. Postman does not set any header type for the binary body type.
Form-data
form-data
multipart/form-data is the default encoding a web form uses to transfer data. This simulates filling a form on a website, and submitting it. The form-data editor lets you set key-value pairs (using the data editor for your data. You can attach files to a key as well. Note: due to restrictions of the HTML 5 spec, files are not stored in history or collections. You will need to select the file again the next time you send the request.
Uploading multiple files each with their own Content-Type is not supported yet.See the image here in the link
