Hi,

Logs states:
... : strauthorization .length ( )
Target exception: java.lang.NullPointerException: Null Pointer in Method Invocation

So, it seems that the property "Authorization_val" does not exist at the time when this script is executed. Can you let us know by what method did you get the value of header "Authorization" into the property with name "Authorization_val"?

The header values are found in the metadata property list of the incoming request object (lisa_vse_request) and a Request Data Copier DPH would have been the easiest way to copy the value into a property inside TestExec.

Hi Danny,
I have tried using Data Copier DPH. I am not able to understand where is the issue.
I have attached print screens of VSI and VSMs from Workstation. Request you to suggest me what is going wrong.
Thanks & Regards, Raghu!!

Hi,

The way how you configured the RDC DPH it looks to me the property would be called "AuthorizationAuthorizationAuthorization_val"
Because

• you defined "Authorization" as pre-fix
• "Authorization" is the name of the metadata argument itself
• you defined "Authorization_val" as post-fix

Try the RDC DPH with

• prefix: <blank>
• postfix: _val

then the name will be "Authorization_val" and your original scripts should work:

var strauthorization = testExec.getStateValue("Authorization_val");

strauthorization = strauthorization.substring(7, strauthorization.length());

testExec.setStateValue("strauthorization",strauthorization);

Use as below for RDC (Same could be achieved using RDM as well- the script may be slightly diff for that)

Thanks.

Thank you very much Vaibhav for your fantastic support. Thank you for taking your time to test by yourself and giving me the solution. It worked ..

[Raghu Krishna]

It worked Danny. Thank you for your quick and excellent support.

Hi Raghu,

You have to set the value of "Authorization_val" using RDM first then you can apply above logic to create a substring to remove "security " from the entire value.
