Pass CSV file to only 1 post request in a runner collection

The only way I can think of doing this is to have your 778 objects as a single JSON string in your CSV file.

You can then import this into a single variable.

This needs to be parsed, and converted into an array.

At which point you can craft a forEach loop using sendRequest() in the Tests tab for the Lock Workspace. This means that “Create firewall address” won’t be a separate request.

It needs to be an array, as forEach won’t work with a JavaScript object which is initially created when you parse the data.

Have a look at the following link, as there is a useful function for working with arrays that will probably benefit you.

//return an array of objects according to key, value, or key and value matching
function getObjects(obj, key, val) {
    var objects = [];
    for (var i in obj) {
        if (!obj.hasOwnProperty(i)) continue;
        if (typeof obj[i] == 'object') {
            objects = objects.concat(getObjects(obj[i], key, val));    
        } else 
        //if key matches and value matches or if key matches and value is not passed (eliminating the case where key matches but passed value does not)
        if (i == key && obj[i] == val || i == key && val == '') { //
            objects.push(obj);
        } else if (obj[i] == val && key == ''){
            //only add if the object is not already in the array
            if (objects.lastIndexOf(obj) == -1){
                objects.push(obj);
            }
        }
    }
    return objects;
}

Have a look at the following for an example of using the function with an array.
