API Call data collection - Dynamic Variables

[dauphinpasdroit]

Hello there !

I'm having some issue to deal with the dynamic variables with the API Call data collection features.

My use case is this one :

• Do a first Azure API call to get a bearer token.
• Use this bearer token into another API call to get Virtual Machine name in a specific resource group or subscriptin, whatever.

The transformer part is setup like this:

which return the value, like this in json format:

I create a dynamic variable here:

and the previous looks good :

Then, I setup my second API call, with the dynamic value I want to use as bearer token in an Authorization headers:

But it keeps on failing and return:

My questions are:

• Is there a way to print out the dynamic variable somewhere to check it ?
• Is there a way to add it into a database ?
• Is there any charactere limitation regarding a value of a dynamic variable ?

Thank you for your help :)

Hey @alphaxr6

Is it simply that you need to remove the double quotes from the binding reference. I.e. Bearer {{ Dynamic.access_token }} ?

You could try using a JavaScript binding instead, that way you could use a console.log statement

Is there any character limitation regarding a value of a dynamic variable ?

Don't think so!
