It's time to work on your next challenge.
-
Create a variable
: Notice the same request from the last challenge. Copy the first part of the request URL (the part before
/post
) and replace it with{{baseURL}}
.
The double curly braces is how you get variables in the text fields of Qodex. If you hover over the variable, the tool tip says
Unresolved Variable
because it hasn't been set yet.
1.
Create an environment
: [Create a new environment] with a key
baseURL
. The value for this new variable should be the part you copied from the request URL in the previous step. You can enter it under both
INITIAL VALUE
and
CURRENT VALUE
. Remember to select the new environment as the active environment so Qodex will read in the values properly.
If you hover over the variable
{{baseURL}}
in the request URL, you should see Qodex reading in the variable value from the actively selected environment. Now that you've stored the base URL in a variable named
baseURL
, you can reference it in your requests using
{{baseURL}}
. If the base URL value is
https://Qodex-echo.com
, and is listed as part of the request URL using
{{baseURL}}/post
, Qodex will send the request to
https://Qodex-echo.com/post
. Save your changes in the collection and environment.
1.
Add a request:
Rename the request from
echo
to
POST raw text
. Then, duplicate the request in this folder, and rename the second request
GET with query params
. Update the new request HTTP method to
GET
and update the request URL from
/post
to
/get
. Add two [query parameters] This can be anything you like, for example,
foo
and
bar
or
name
and
ferret
.
Send
to make sure you get a 200 status code.
