  • 1.  How to change "Operation" name in VSI

    Posted Sep 21, 2016 12:34 PM

    The "Operation" name is automatically detected when processing the VSI after Recording. For Soap, as an example, it is decided from the message header service name.

    We have a case where we would like to specify what tag/argument to use for Operation name setting.

    Can this be done manually after recording (hope so) or is it possible to change the rule setting this Operation value?

    Request Data Manager Data Protocol - DevTest Solutions - 9.5 - CA Technologies Documentation 

     

    After recording (or reprocessing your existing recording) add another protocol handler, and use it to copy the field you want in the request to the Operation field for the VSI..

    Hello,

     

            You can use the Generic XML Payload Parser handler in addition to SOAP and select the field that you would like to set as operation name in that. Please find a screenshot below for that. Please let me know if this works for you.

     

    Thanks,

    Hello Julien,

     

     If you see in the example I shared, I selected the ZIP field (tag) value under txt and not the field (tag) itself. In your case, please let me know what  you are trying to set as operation Name.

     

    Thank You,

    Regards,

    Surya.

    So the problem, it takes all attributes in this element in the name..

     

    There is a function to select just the name of the tag?

    You can use local-name(/soap:Envelope/soap:Header...) as the Set Operation xPath to select just the element name without the namespace.
