I'm using Prestashop 1.6.1.1 web service and I need to send POST request with json content. Is there any way to achieve this? When I performed GET request and I added output_format=JSON parameter, I got json as a result. Is there any analogical parameter for input?

I have a body of data in a JSON file from an API GET request, but I can't figure out how to get only the specific items I need from it.
I have Visual Studio Code installed, is there a way to do this in it?
I'm not sure if I understood the question. As I understood, you send a request to an endpoint and receive a JSON object.
You can check the documentation of the API you're using. It can have other endpoints or query parameters that return the data you're looking for. In any case, you can filter the data yourself with the help of a programming language.
If you be more specific with the language and API you're using; JSON you receive and the desired result, you can get a better response.
I need to validate incoming json requests structure in wso2. I will be able to validate incoming json using default json validator in mediation sequence, but I want to apply json validation only for POST request and not for GET request in an API. It can be achieved by adding custom in flow sequence.
I'm having json validator file for schema validation(like jsonvaldiator.json).
Where should I keep this file in wso2 api manager 2.6.0 and how to mention the validator file path in filter added in the custom in flow sequence?
Any comments would be appreciated.
Yes, you need to add a custom In sequence to the default message mediation flow in order to achieve this. Please have a look at this blog post about validating JSON request payload. This might help to do this for APIM-2.6. Because the blog has been written for an older version but you can get the idea. :)

I have a API defined in my project which returns JSON data in response.
url(r'^api/report/(?P<report_id>\w+)/generate/', staff_member_required(api_views.GenerateReport.as_view()), name="generate_report"),
In another app of same project, I want to receive this data in views.py
How do I make a request to this url using some django functions.
I think there might be some way to make this GET request without using requests or any other 3rd party module.
Any help would be appreciated.
I recently started working on Rest Based Web services. Here I have a requirement where I need to validate the contents of the request based on a parameter of request.
My question is What will be the best approach to do this validation.
I have two different JSON requests hitting my webservice.
Validate in the interceptor. This will need me to cast the request object back to its actual Type.
Validating the request in Controller.
Also I would like to know if filters can be used in this scenario and what benefit will it give me.
Thanks.
I have some specific scenario for retrieving Access Token from API using jmeter.
I need to implement following test case and have no idea how to implement this (I am new in jmeter):
Send GET request to server.
Server will return following response: {"RequestToken":"81d1fcd6146d41f69a966a2c083382c7","Expires":3600}
After that I need to send POST request to server with parameter of "RequestToken" from step #2.
Thanks!
Answer of Dmitri T really helped me! Thanks a lot!
If your response {"RequestToken":"81d1fcd6146d41f69a966a2c083382c7","Expires":3600} is the full one you can add a Regular Expression Extractor Post Processor to GET request configured as follows:
Reference Name: anything meaningful, i.e. token
Regular Expression: {"RequestToken":"(.+?)","Expires":3600}
Template: $1$
After that you can refer to extracted value as ${token} or ${__V(token)} in POST request.
If you need to deal with more complex JSON structures I would recommend using JSON Path Extractor available via JMeter Plugin. It allows fetching data from JSON responses in more "intelligent" way as big JSON entities cannot be easily parsed via regular expressions.
In this case relevant JSON Path query will look like $.RequestToken.
See Using the XPath Extractor in JMeter guide for more details (scroll down to Parsing JSON).
Hope this helps.
