You are most welcome
Thanks bro!
Most welcome Azat
May Allah bless you bro
Thanks
thank you😄
You're welcome 😊
good job
Thanks
You made it look so easy. However, when I actually try to do it on a real life application the documentation from the vendor is way too daunting. It all looks Chinese to generate session token as header etc. have you done a video on understanding all those technical jargons? If yes please pass it on 👍
Thanks for your message Nabeel, I will check on this
What screen editing tool are you using? You are SO smooth. Excellent tutorial!
I generally use mac tools
@@RaghavPal Thank you for responding! I have been overdosing on your videos! Top notch!
hi sir, after the 'post method' , can we able to view all the records with the newly created one using the 'get method' ?
Hi Abeena, Yes, if they are created successfully on the server, the GET request should be able to retrieve them
Great explained 👍
Sir why we use snippets ?
To create tests or any other action automatically
Which recording software you use to highlight the section on the screen?
Mac screen annotations
can we post multiple records at once ? if yes, what is the syntax? pls help
Hi Sanatan,
I will need clarity on what do you mean by multiple records. It will also depend on the API functionality, This may help:
1. Open Postman and create a new request
2. Select the POST method and enter the URL of the endpoint you want to post to
3. In the request body, select the "raw" option and set the format to "JSON"
4. Enter the array of objects in the following format:
[
{
"name": "John Doe",
"email": "john.doe@example.com"
},
{
"name": "Jane Doe",
"email": "jane.doe@example.com"
}
]
In this example, we have an array of two objects with the properties "name" and "email".
Send the request and you should see the response with the data you posted
Note that the specific syntax for posting multiple records at once may vary depending on the API you are working with. Be sure to consult the API documentation to determine the correct syntax for your use case.
Please add Jmeter API videos. Thanks

Is there any testing api against which we can test post operation using jmeter?
Noor
Yes, there are many testing APIs against which you can test POST operations using JMeter. Here are a few examples:
*JSONPlaceholder:* This is a fake online REST API that you can use for testing purposes. It provides a variety of endpoints, including a POST endpoint that you can use to test POST operations.
*SwaggerHub:* This is a platform for designing, developing, documenting, and consuming REST APIs. It provides a variety of features, including a testing environment that you can use to test POST operations.
*Postman:* This is a popular tool for testing REST APIs. It provides a variety of features, including a POST endpoint that you can use to test POST operations.
To test a POST operation using JMeter, you will need to create a HTTP Request sampler and configure it to send a POST request to the endpoint that you want to test. You can also use the HTTP Request sampler to set the body of the POST request.
Here is an example of how to test a POST operation using JMeter:
1. Create a new JMeter test plan.
2. Add a HTTP Request sampler to the test plan.
3. Configure the HTTP Request sampler to send a POST request to the endpoint that you want to test.
4. Set the body of the POST request.
5. Add a View Results Tree listener to the test plan.
6. Run the test plan.
JMeter will send a POST request to the endpoint that you specified in the HTTP Request sampler. The response from the endpoint will be displayed in the View Results Tree listener.
You can use JMeter to assert the response from the endpoint. For example, you can use the JSON Path Extractor to extract a value from the response and then use the Assert Equals assertion to check that the value is correct.
You can also use JMeter to test the performance of POST operations. For example, you can use the LoadRunner Performance Test Tool to generate a large number of POST requests and then use JMeter to measure the response times.
I hope this helps!
Thankyou so much , it was really helpful@@RaghavPal
Hi sir, under Body -> we copied only name and job under request but in response we got id and createdAt as well. may we know the reason??
Punith
that may be as per the API structure and functionality.. do now worry on that as these are demo APIs
Please Explain Api testing in postman
Sure, will find videos on that in this playlist, Can check here too - automationstepbystep.com/
What is this test that you do in the end. In general what is test for any initial request that we do (trying to understand the concept of test). Also it says Pass status code is 200 but we entered 201
Ammar
When we create tests then it is checked against our expected outcome and accordingly fail or pass will be marked. The concept of Tests is there in the upcoming videos. Pls check
Just wondering about this...when we try the 'Tests' with code '201'for posting the request, then it shows as passed under 'Test Results' tab but mentions status code is '200' when for 'POST' it's '201' ..
Hi Vasanth, you mean in the response it is showing code 200. For Post generally 201 should come, but 200 is also fine, it depends on the implementation.
@@RaghavPal thanks for the reply 👍
When i added the status code test it did not fail like yours did I exptected it to fail since script is looking for 200
Make sure you save after making changes and try again
when I try to save the request it wants collection name too otherwise save button is not clickable.
So need to create collection first?
Yes
@@RaghavPal thanks for reply and that one is cleared in collection video too.
Where is the Get request you have created is it in this video?
Sharda, it will be in the earlier video. Please check the playlist here - automationstepbystep.com/
trying to pass a single value no object example {"counties" : "county1", "county2"} is this possible
No, it is not possible to pass a single value as an object in JSON format in Postman API testing. In JSON format, an object is defined using a key-value pair, where the value can be another object, an array, or a scalar value.
In your example, the value for the key "counties" is "county1", but the value for the key "county2" is missing. To represent multiple counties as a list or an array, you can modify your JSON object as follows:
{
"counties": [
"county1",
"county2"
]
}
This represents an object with a key "counties" whose value is an array of two string values, "county1" and "county2".
Alternatively, if you only need to pass a single value, you can use a scalar value directly in the JSON object without defining it as an object or an array. For example:
{
"county": "county1"
}
This represents an object with a key "county" whose value is a string value "county1"
Sir need a session on snippets alone, pls make a video sir
I have tried to cover that part in test scripts, will try to add more
@@RaghavPal sir, thanks for ur quick response always, but by basic doubt to where can i learn complete validation coading part(i think assertions). We have a target to learn this by end of next week at the office, so struggling for the same. If you get some time please upload more information. Thanks alot sir
As of now, you can take help from official documentation of Postman and online resources
@@RaghavPal yes sir, trying the same
Iam completed MBA can i go for devops side
Yes, you can, Watch this - th-cam.com/video/KrVezx3E8OQ/w-d-xo.html
Why is it not allowing to test a localhost api
may be some system, proxy or firewall issue
I am getting a 401 error, I have a htpps post service
A 401 error in Postman for an HTTPS POST service signifies an "Unauthorized" response from the server. This means the server didn't recognize or accept your authentication credentials. Here are some steps to troubleshoot:
1. Verify Authentication details:
Double-check: Ensure you've entered the correct username, password, API key, or token in the appropriate authorization section of the request.
Case sensitivity: Pay attention to case sensitivity if passwords or tokens are case-sensitive.
Token expiration: If using a token, verify its validity and refresh it if expired.
2. Authorization type:
Confirm the expected authorization type: Check the API documentation or consult with the API provider to confirm the required authorization method (Basic Auth, Bearer token, etc.).
Correct placement: Ensure the authorization data is placed in the header, body, or URL parameters according to the API's guidelines.
3. SSL certificate:
Validity: For HTTPS requests, ensure the server's SSL certificate is valid and trusted by your system. Consider importing the certificate if self-signed.
Postman settings: Check if Postman has specific settings related to SSL certificate verification.
4. Network issues:
Connectivity: Verify your internet connection is stable and accessible.
Firewall restrictions: Temporarily disable any firewall or network security software that might be blocking the request.
5. API documentation and support:
Refer to the API documentation: Carefully review the documentation for specific authentication requirements and troubleshooting advice.
Contact API provider: If you're unsure about the expected behavior or encounter specific error messages, reach out to the API provider for further assistance.
