I have two issues that i need help with … In API 1 - i want to loop the response body of GET API and find all the “header” that contain “Delete” When the script finds something that contains “Delete”, grab the announcementid and set it in an array … [image] the code below, is finding the one…

Easy fix for your first one. You to toLowerCase() on the header, but the string you’re trying to match has an upper case: Delete. var jsonData = pm.response.json(); var resultCount = jsonData.length; // Test arrays var hasDelete = []; var doesntHaveDelete = []; // Loop through and set arrays with…

Yes, if i add 186 manually at the top within the url it is working fine, its not working if i add the variable.

But what if you add 171 at the top? I’m asking specifically about that value.

[image] allenheltondev: at t I just executed it right this moment, if I add 170 at the top which came from the array, it is working fine [image]

Hi so i tried this… Added a slide through a post request Got the Posted request and added it in a Array in the Get command Used the delete and was able to delete one of the sectionids , but i want it to delete all the sectionids by clicking send once … i clicked send again and than it deleted ano…

You can’t. The method I provided is for running through the collection runner or a monitor/newman. The alternative would be to update the API to take in multiple values.

Oh got ya… so we cant add a loop that specifies if that array has 7 ids - send request to all 7 ids …?

Also you can do is save those values in variable and delete it within loop. And sorry Allen flagged ur post by mistake or use pre script
