🙋 Help

Hello, I am getting an error when running my postman tests.

"TypeError: The first argument must be one of type string, Buffer, ArrayBuffer, Array, or Array-like Object. Received type object".

This is my request:

/v2/verification/transactionrecord/{{transactionRecordId}}/documenturl

My pre-requisite script has this code:

if (pm.iterationData.get("iterationName") == "TC-02 - Status Code is 400 for Non-Cportal application user") {
    pm.collectionVariables.set("transactionRecordId", (pm.iterationData.get("transactionRecordId")));
}

Hey @lunar-module-admini7 :wave:

Welcome to the Postman Community! :postman:

Could you expand on the details and context here, please? Are you able to show your full script and the datafile that you’re using in the Collection Runner?

What is the transactionRecordId value here and why are you wrapping that in () when setting the variable?

pm.collectionVariables.set("transactionRecordId", (pm.iterationData.get("transactionRecordId")))

Hi @lunar-module-admini7

With the information you’ve provided, there seems to be a loigic error in that your transactionRecordId collection variable will only be set if the iterationName is equal to ‘TC-02 - Status Code…’. So, if iterationName is something else, transactionRecordId will be null.
