Jmeter: Dynamic URL encrypted - url

I'm working on a test plan with Jmeter.
The issue is that I can't retrieve the URL link as he is managed dynamically.
The URL has the following format:
localhost\blablabla?PATHPARAM=qzflh%2FGJHBGDCV%GROPJHVFFFDDFGGCFD%JJYTGVFRTVFGGFF%JUYGBG
I already try to search the value of PATHPARAM in the previous requests to retrieve it using regular expression extractor but I didn't find it.
It seems that this url is generated inside a javascript code but the way to extract it is unknown for me, inside the js code I find the value : var url = actionName + "?" + params ;
Is that any way to catch the content or the var url in Jmeter, else have you any other solution to solve this issue with this dynamic URL.
Many thanks in advance for your help.


I can see 2 possible options:
If you are being redirected to this URL automatically (you might need to play with Redirect Automatically and Follow Redirects boxes in the HTTP Request sampler
If this is the case - you should be able to get it using the following Regular Expression Extractor configuration
If you need to replicate the logic of this param variable calculation - you can attempt to do it using JSR223 PreProcessor which can execute arbitrary JavaScript code

JMeter: How can I capture the variable value which is dynamic in url?

We have a URL https://www.mylink.com/est?myId=4d22b9d0-4ff2-46c3-9343-945304dfea93
The above request also contains post data:
myId=4d22b9d0-4ff2-46c3-9343-945304dfea93
How can I parameterize this as the url and post data both contain same value but its dynamic. Also, how may I store it in a variable to use it somewhere else as well?

In order to be able to use it in URL and request body you need to extract it somewhere somehow, this dynamic ID is probably associated with this or that user account so my expectation is that after logging in you should see this ID somewhere in the response.
The process is known as correlation and there is a plenty of information over the web about handling dynamic requests in JMeter. There are also solutions which provide semi or fully automated correlation of the dynamic parameters like Correlations Recorder Plugin for JMeter or JMeter Proxy Recorder
If you just need to generate an unique GUID-like structure - you can do it using __UUID() function

Coldfusion - Setting/Using URL Parameters

In ColdFusion, I understand how to work with URLs using the query string functions: i.e., the second parameter in:
test.cfm?par1=val1&par2=val2&par3=val3
can be accessed by:
<cfset Param2 = ListGetAt(CGI.QUERY_STRING,2,"&")>
However, I was tasked with making dynamic URLs with the parameters separated simply by slashes, i.e.:
test.cfm/val1/val2/val3
How can I construct a URL this way, and then utilize those parameters in the webpage it links to?
Edit: I understand it would be quite easy to construct a string that is "test.cfm/#val1#/#val2#/#val#" and use it as my URL; I was wondering if there was a cleaner, built-in way for CF to help me do it. I am still lost on how to access those in the page.

Param2 = listChangeDelims(CGI.QUERY_STRING,"/","&");
That will turn "foo=bar&sna=fu" into "foo=bar/sna=fu".
Or listChangeDelims(CGI.QUERY_STRING,"/","&=");
will change it to "foo/bar/sna/fu"

What does "URL=" in a URL Mean?

May be a dumb question, but it's been bugging me recently. I see "URL=" inside alot of URL's, such as this one:
http://www.tierraantigua.com/search-2?url=http%3A%2F%2Flink.flexmls.com%2Fwws30ham
What exactly is this used to do? Is it part of the iFrame functionality? I know the last part of the URL (after the URL=) is the part being displayed in the iFrame, but I'm unsure of why it is included in the primary URL as well.
Thanks!

The url you see here is just a standard query parameter wit the name url and the encoded value http%3A%2F%2Flink.flexmls.com%2Fwws30ham which decodes to http://link.flexmls.com/Fwws30ham. Most of the times it is used for determining redirection or source information by the application you are using. It is entirely domain-specific and can have any meaning the website developer would like to use.

PHP GET
Description ΒΆ
An associative array of variables passed to the current script via the URL parameters.
$url = $_GET['url'];
echo $url; // http%3A%2F%2Flink.flexmls.com%2Fwws30ham

GWT Method GET, retrieve parameter

I have a gwt url like this
http://127.0.0.1:8888/BiddingSystem.html?gwt.codesvr=127.0.0.1:9997#ForumMessage=918
when I am doing this
Window.Location.getParameter("ForumMessage")
I am getting null??
By the way, I not getting the point why this ?gwt.codesvr=127.0.0.1:9997 in the url!!

To get the value of the URL fragment (the part after the #) call Window.Location.getHash(). This will return all of "ForumMessage=918".
getParameter() returns query parameters, not the URL fragment.
See here for more information about the parts of a URL.
The ?gwt.codesvr= part is needed to run in Development Mode.

Look at this topic GWT URL Parameters
Here is answer
url should be http://localhost:8080/?testing=abc#pg5 instead of http://localhost:8080/#pg5?testing=abc
and delete that part (?gwt.codesvr=127.0.0.1:9997 ) and run it in web mode. I think it will solve your problem

Passing a parameter via URL to SQL Server Reporting Services

I'm trying to pass a userId (string) in the URL which will be passed to the database and used by a query in SSRS.
base URL:
http://blah/Reports/Pages/Report.aspx?ItemPath=MyReport
I tried this, but it doesn't work:
http://blah/Reports/Pages/Report.aspx?ItemPath=MyReport&UserId=fred
Any ideas?

First, be sure to replace Reports/Pages/Report.aspx?ItemPath= with ReportServer?. In other words, instead of this:
http://server/Reports/Pages/Report.aspx?ItemPath=/ReportFolder/ReportSubfolder/ReportName
Use this syntax:
http://server/ReportServer?/ReportFolder/ReportSubfolder/ReportName
Parameters can be referenced or displayed in a report using #ParameterName, whether they're set in the report or in the URL. You can attach parameters to the URL with &ParameterName=Value.
To hide the toolbar where parameters are displayed, add &rc:Toolbar=false to the URL (reference).
Putting that together, you can run a URL with embedded values, or call this as an action from one report and read by another report:
http://server.domain.com/ReportServer?/ReportFolder1/ReportSubfolder1/ReportName&UserID=ABC123&rc:Toolbar=false
In the report's dataset properties query: SELECT stuff FROM view WHERE User = #UserID
In the report, set the expression value to [UserID] (or =Fields!UserID.Value)
Keep in mind that if a report has multiple parameters, you might need to include all parameters in the URL, even if blank, depending on how your dataset query is written. That means repeating the parameter name for multiple values of the same parameter, too.
To pass a parameter using Action = Go to URL, set expression to:
="http://server.domain.com/ReportServer?/ReportFolder1/ReportSubfolder1/ReportName&UserID="
&Fields!UserID.Value
&"&rc:Toolbar=false"
&"&rs:ClearSession=True"
Be sure to have a space after an expression if followed by & (a line break is isn't enough). No space is required before an expression. This method can pass a parameter but does not hide it as it is visible in the URL.
If you don't include &rs:ClearSession=True then the report won't refresh until browser session cache is cleared.
To pass a parameter using Action = Go to report:
Specify the report
Add parameter(s) to run the report
Add parameter(s) you wish to pass (the parameters need to be defined in the destination report, so to my knowledge you can't use URL-specific commands such as rc:toolbar using this method); however, I suppose it would be possible to read or set the Prompt User checkbox, as seen in reporting sever parameters, through custom code in the report)
For reference, see this page on URL encoding, e.g. / = %2f

As well as what Shiraz said, try something like this:
http://<server>/ReportServer/Pages/ReportViewer.aspx?%2f<path>%2f<ReportName>&rs:Command=Render&UserID='fred'
Note the path would only work if you are in a single folder. When I have to do this I simply browse to the report using the reportserver path ("reports" is the report manager) and copy the url then add &<ParameterName>=<value> to the end.

Try changing "Reports" to "ReportServer" in your url

According to Microsoft, the format basically is:
http://<server>/reportserver?/<path>/<report>&rs:Command=Render&<parameter>=<value>

Try passing multiple values via url:
/ReportServer?%2fService+Specific+Reports%2fFilings%2fDrillDown%2f&StartDate=01/01/2010&EndDate=01/05/2010&statuses=1&statuses=2&rs%3AFormat=PDF
This should work.

I solved a similar problem by passing the value of the available parameter in the URL instead of the label of the parameter.
For instance, I have a report with a parameter named viewName and the predefined Available Values for the parameter are: (labels/values) orders/sub_orders, orderDetail/sub_orderDetail, product/sub_product.
To call this report with a URL to render automatically for parameter=product, you must specify the value not the label.
This would be wrong:
http://server/reportserver?/Data+Dictionary/DetailedInfo&viewName=product&rs:Command=Render
This is correct:
http://server/reportserver?/Data+Dictionary/DetailedInfo&viewName=sub_product&rs:Command=Render

Use the URL, mentioned below to open the report in a new window with dynamic parameters.
="javascript:void(window.open('http://Servername/ReportServer?/Foldername/Reportname&rs:Commnd=Render&parameter1=" & Fields!A.Value & "&parameter2=" & Fields!B.Value & "'))"

Try changing "Reports" to "ReportServer" in your url.
For that just access this http://host/ReportServer/ and from there you can go to the report pages. There append your parmaters like this
&<parameter>=<value>
