How to pass parameters to feature file in a loop? [duplicate] - api

Question

I am making a SOAP request, and I am receiving the response that's returned as an array:
- [print] [
"M4205N",
"M4206U"
]
For each item in the array, I want to make another SOAP request. I've read how you can do this with tables and call a feature file, and I've read how to loop through an array, and call a js function. I cannot figure out how to loop through the array, and pass each value to another SOAP request XML (one at a time).
I want to do something like this:
Given soapURL
And method post
def responseArray = /xml path for the codes I want/
def result = call read('otherRequest.feature') responseArray
The otherRequest.feature file would look something like this:
#ignore
Feature:
Background:
* def myNewRequest = read('soap.xml')
Scenario:
Given soapURL
* replace myNewRequest
| token | value |
| ##refNum## | responseArrayValue |
When request myNewRequest
And method post
However, I get this error:
GetNewMessageList.feature:27 - argument not json or map for feature call loop array position: 0, M4205N
How can I loop through each item in the array, and pass each value to the other feature file?

The addition of this one line should do what you want. Yes there is a hard requirement that the "loop" array should be an array of JSON objects. But you can convert an array of primitives in one step:
* def responseArray = karate.mapWithKey(responseArray, 'responseArrayValue')
This is documented here: https://github.com/intuit/karate#json-transforms
