Some requests are quite straightforward to create with JMeter, some require a bit of googling; So here’s my quick how-to on sending a JSON Post request with JMeter:
1. Insert a HTTP Request Sampler as a child to your Thread Group
As usual, fill out the Path and the other bits and pieces you require in the HTTP Request
Plus:
- Method: POST
- Post Body: JSON request data
2. Insert a HTTP Header Manager as a child to your HTTP Request Sampler
- Name: content-type
- Value: application/json; charset=utf-8
And Run! – At this point you want to make sure that the response hasn’t returned any errors. You can do this with the View Results Tree Listener.
Easy.
