My question:
Hi all, I am still learning to use postman and sometimes I am confused what the keyword that I can use for searching the solution. Really need your help :slight_smile: here my issue:
I want to get the date&time from the response body, but only the date and for the time only want to get the hour & minutes (exclude “second”)

NOTES: I want to save into variable

Example response that I want to get:

{
"is_true": true,
"datetime": "2019-08-24T14:15:22Z",
"data": {
"description": "Service OK",
"start_at": "2019-08-24T14:15:22Z",
"end_at": "2019-08-24T14:15:22Z"
}
}

Hi,

So if this is the response you are getting

{
"is_true": true,
"datetime": "2019-08-24T14:15:22Z",
"data": {
"description": "Service OK",
"start_at": "2019-08-24T14:15:22Z",
"end_at": "2019-08-24T14:15:22Z"
}

Then you could get the date and the time from this and store them in variables.

// get the postman response
let res = pm.response.json();

// get the date
let date = res.datetime.split('T')[0];

// get the time 
let time = res.datetime.split('T')[1].slice(0,5);
