JSON parsing help needed

[Kimi]

Hi,

Total noob question here:

How do i get all the “id” values to into “userid”-variable as an array with a test script? Like 1,11,111,1111,11111 etc. At the moment my parser gets all the data within “records” array in the JSON and puts it in the “userid”-variable.

Is have a JSON body such as this:

{

"records": [

    {

        "id": "1",

        "email": "[email protected]"

    },

    {

        "id": "11",

        "email": "[email protected]"

    },

    {

        "id": "111",

        "email": "[email protected]"

    },

    {

        "id": "1111",

        "email": "[email protected]"

    },

    {

        "id": "11111",

        "email": "[email protected]"

    },

    {

        "id": "111111",

        "email": "[email protected]"

    },

    {

        "id": "1111111",

        "email": "[email protected]"

    }

]

}

My parser looks like this:

var data = JSON.parse(responseBody);
postman.setEnvironmentVariable(“userid”, JSON.stringify(data.records));
console.log(data.records);

Thank you very much already for your answers!

You could use something like this to iterate through the data and push each of the id values into the idList array.

The idList array is then saved as a global variable.

idList = []
_.each(pm.response.json().records, (item) => {
    idList.push(item.id)
})

pm.globals.set('idListArray', JSON.stringify(idList))

This is a very basic way of doing what you asked but I’m sure there are much more cleaner solutions.

Thanks Danny! I’ll test your solution for now.
