How to handle JSON request in LoadRunner(LR 12.53)

JSON request can be handled using lr_eval_json function in LR 12.53.
lr_eval_json parses a JSON string, creates a JSON object, and stores the handle of the object in a parameter.
This function is not recorded. You can insert it manually into your script.

Step1: Capture JSON request from the response body using web_reg_save_param.

Step2: Input captured parameter of json parameter and save it in a string using below lr_save_sting function.

        lr_save_string(json_input, "JSON_Input_Param");

Step3: Create a Json object using above json string.

 //Create a Json object from a string.
 lr_eval_json("Buffer={JSON_Input_Param}",
              "JsonObject=json_obj_1", LAST);

 //Create a Json object from a file.
 lr_eval_json("Buffer/File=store.json", 
              "JsonObject=json_obj_2", LAST);

Step4: Using below function values can be fetched from json object and used in the scritps.

      lr_json_get_values("JsonObject=json_obj", 

                         "ValueParam=val", 

                         "QueryString=$.val", 

                         "SelectAll=Yes", 

                         LAST);

Values will be stored in parameter like val_1, val_2, val_3.........

Alternate way:

Using web_reg_save_param_json function.

The web_reg_save_param_json function supports array type parameters. When you specify SelectAll=Yes, all the occurrences of the match are saved in an array. 

Each element of the array is represented by the ParamName_index. 

In the following example, the parameter name is A:


web_reg_save_param_json("ParamName= A", "QueryString=$..arguments.additional_context[0].name", "SelectAll=Yes", LAST );
The first match is saved as A_1, the second match is saved as A_2, and so forth. You can retrieve the total number of matches by using the following term: ParamName_count. 

For example, to retrieve the total number of matches saved to the parameter array, 

use: TotalNumberOfMatches=atoi(lr_eval_string("{A_count}"));         

web_reg_save_param_json is not recorded. You can add it manually to a script.
