Hello,

I am new to Postman. My issue is described below. Kindly suggest.

Hit a request, select one JSON variable/property from Response, if that value is > 10, fail the assertion in Tests.

When I am trying to save the JSON property, it’s replying back saying it’s Undefined.

I tried parsing too but didn’t work. Also, I tried the below code which didnt work.

pm.test(“Max Temp greater than 10 validation”,function () {
var jsonData = pm.response.json();
pm.expect(jsonData.temp_max).tobeLessthan(10);
});

Hey @ArupAcharya

Welcome to the Postman community! :rocket:

Could you share an example of the response body, please?

Without seeing the response I’m just guessing here but it could be something like this:

pm.expect(jsonData["temp_max"]).to.be.below(10);

@danny-dainton

It still fails with below error.
Max Temp greater than 10 validation | AssertionError: expected undefined to be a number or a date

It looks like temp_max is inside the main object so it would be jsonData.main["temp_max"]

It works like a mule.

Thanks very much. Appreciate your quick response. Learnt something tonight. happy to sleep now.
