Q - Postman: How to clear collectionvariables between tests - automated-tests

I'm new to API testing through postman and i'm currently trying to figure out how to clear down my collection variables between automated tests.
Here is my code below - Thanks so much for anybody who can point me in the right direction.


Warning :
pm.collectionVariables.clear()
will delete all your collection variables:
pm.collectionVariables.unset("variablename")
will delete that particular variable.
so if you just want to reset the value to initial value then:
in the first request add:
pm.environment.get("resetValue") ? null:pm.variables.set("resetValue",pm.collectionVariables.toJSON().values)
Here we store data only if resetValue variable is not set
And in the last request:
pm.environment.get("resetValue").forEach((a)=>pm.collectionVariables.set(a.key,a.value))
pm.environment.unset("resetValue")
This make sure you don't set resetValue incorrectly if you are running first request multiple time
you can also use pm.variables if you don't any variable to be affected , thats the better way

Logic App using HTTP Action to access and GET Jira ticket

So I followed this answer and it works fine:
https://stackoverflow.com/a/74981947/20829088
Provided URL:
https://<YOUR_DOMAIN>.atlassian.net/rest/api/2/search?jql=project=<PROJECTID>&fields=issue,status,name&startAt=0&maxResults=8000
However, it take a lot of time. So, if I want the url to check for specific ticket depending on created time and type of ticket. For example
I want ticket that is created within 15 days and that are NOT a sub-task.
so I tried something like this.
.....&fields=issue,summary,issuetype&created>=-15d&hierarchylevel=0
I'm not sure of how it should be written I just tried this and it doesn't work.
Here is the request result in JSON:
It should be earthier [subtask=false] OR [hierarchylevel=0] OR [name=Task]

After reproducing from my end, I could able to achieve this using Condition connector of logic apps. I have initialized an array variable first and then tried to append each item that satisfies the condition. Below is the flow of my logic app.
and then I used Parse Json to retrieve the required values for condition comparision
You can use the below Code view to reproduce the same in your environment.

Polymer Firebase Binding for Location

I've been trying to bind a location value to a "note" (as in the na-notes example in codelabs) via firebase. I'm using the paper-input-place, but have tried with several other elements to no avail. So far, this is what I have (corresponding to the na-note.html document):
<paper-input-place is="iron-input" bind-value="{{address}}" value="{{address}}" label="Address" api-key="key">
And then I have this on my na-editor.html:
<na-note id="note" title="{{note.title}}" location="{{note.place_id}}" price="{{note.price}}" rooms="{{note.rooms}}" beds="{{note.beds}}" baths="{{note.baths}}" editable></na-note>
I am thinking that it probably is a silly mistake, but I've been going at it for two days and I'm starting to loose my patience, so any help would be appreciated!
Thanks!

at above na-note element, note is an object retrieved from firebase. so, to this path, you will need to save location data of the note. So, when you received the proper data from paper-input-place element, you will need to save it to the note's path as a location. So, first retrive the address:
<paper-input-place hide-error place="{{place}}" api-key="[[apiKey]]" on-place-changed="searchPlaceChanged" > </paper-input-place>
...
searchPlaceChanged(p){
console.log(p.detail.value); // You will need to see the place data, which you may like to save only some detail like: p.detail.value.formatted_address;
this.set('note.place', p.detail.value.formatted_address);
}
Asuming just abobe note object (at set operation) is firebase-document's two way binding retrived data that you just editing.

Can multiple requests update a single environment variable in Paw?

I have a variable named primary_address_id which can be set or updated via several API requests. For example, I may call AddAddress and specify that the new address should be the primary, or I can call MakePrimaryAddress to set an existing address as the primary.
I'm coming from Postman where I have tests defined for each of these API endpoints to update primary_address_id -- simple. But I can't find a way to do this in Paw; it seems I have to set the value to the response of just a single request. Am I missing something obvious? Or is this feature planned for a future release?
A workaround is to set the value of primary_address_id to the response from GetPrimaryAddress, but that means if I'm adding or updating an address I have to make a second call just to update my environment (which I may forget to do). If I could trigger GetPrimaryAddress to run after the Add/Update/List/etc endpoints that would be an acceptable workaround, but I shouldn't need to manually make two separate requests to accomplish this.

It sounds like you will need to make two subsequent requests but you can make groups of requests that will execute in sequence from one command.
Right click the request list and click "New Group" then within that group you can make a sequence of requests that will update your desired environment variable each time.
Create a new group of requests
To run a group of requests click on the group name; in this case "Address" and then click "Send Requests"
Execute group of requests in sequence
Hope this helps.

Using cfs:http-publish

I'm trying to use the cfs:http-publish package at https://github.com/CollectionFS/Meteor-http-publish. While I've got the GET - /api/list functionality working, I don't know how to obtain a single document:
(GET - /api/list/:id - find one published document).
Can someone provide a curl example of this, assuming a certain collection of objections.
eg: {a:3, b:2}, {a:4, b:3}, and requiring to obtain the object with {a:3}.
Thanks.

You need to put it in the query function.
HTTP.publish({collection: myList},function( ){
return myList.find(this.query);
});
this.query contains the data you sent with your request.
curl http://localhost:3000/api/myList?a=3
I don't know enough about mongo to know if this is a potential security risk, if anyone can comment on that please do.

Applying more than one sort on a Tridion broker query

I have a broker query where I need to sort by 2 different fields (using JSP and 2011 SP1)
The API has the method "addSorting" which I am applying.
It appears, however, that the second addSorting call is overwriting the first addSorting call - rather than adding the second sort:
// Sort by Date
CustomMetaKeyColumn customMetaKeyColumnDate = new CustomMetaKeyColumn("date", MetadataType.DATE);
query.addSorting(new SortParameter(customMetaKeyColumnDate, SortParameter.DESCENDING));
// Sort by Owner
CustomMetaKeyColumn customMetaKeyColumnOwner = new CustomMetaKeyColumn("owner", MetadataType.STRING);
query.addSorting(new SortParameter(customMetaKeyColumnOwner, SortParameter.ASCENDING));
They sorts work fine individually.
Is this expected? Is addSorting really a setSorting - where only 1 sort can be specified or am I missing a way to combine 2 sorts?

The addSorting method works just fine. However, it simply does not work for CustomMeta columns!!! There is already a confirmed defect regarding this subject with the following summary: "SortParameter does not work with two metadata fields". This is still an open defect for 2011SP1 and is scheduled to be fixed only for the next release.
Cheers,
Daniel.
