T&T as a parameter in C# from query - asp.net-core

I am trying to get a parameter T&T to api by angular .from angular T&T sending as a parameter but .net core api site it is divided and T only taking as parameter .Could you please anyone tell me how to pack T&T as a parameter


Using the & in the query string, we could add multiple parameters. If you want to send a parameter value which contains the & character, you have to Encode the it using the encodeURIComponent() function, then the & character will be changed to %26. More detail information, see HTML URL Encoding Reference
So, try to replace the & to %26.

Using a Wildcard in Postman API Call

I am trying to perform a GET API call in Postman.
One of the parameters in the query (a string) should include a wildcard, since I want to receive response which includes several optional values (for example "Demo1...", "Demo2...").
Any suggestion how this can be done?

How to convert date (1991-08-23T00:00:00) which is captured in response and then convert this format (08-23-1991) in vugen?

I am working on a script where I need to submit a form and do some authentication during the steps. I am using LoadRunner Vugen for scripting. For one of the request's response I can see birthdate is coming like below:
"suffixName": ""
"birthDate": "1991-08-23T00:00:00",
"agencyName": ""
In another later request I can see in jason body the same date is used like below
"Body={\agentSuffix":null,"agentFirstName":"XYZ","agentLastName":"WSD","agentBirthDate":"08-23-1991" and so on with additional body.
I am able to capture the date from response by using web_reg_save_param_ex. But now how do I convert the value so that I can use it in next jason body in a custom request. I just need help to capture it.
Captured value: 1991-08-23T00:00:00
Expected value: 08/23/1991
Thanks in advance

Correlate for the string
Use your programming skills in the language of your virtual user to transform transform the string into a new string. Your test code might be C, JavaScript, Java, ... so use language-appropriate string conversion functions.
Hints
"LB=birthDate":"", "RB=T00:00:00"
Conside the loop and what this means for the use of substring and sprintf();
for (counter=0;counter<=strlen(lr_eval_string(MyCorrelatedVarName));counter++)
{ lr_message("%s",&lr_eval_string(MyCorrelatedVarName)[counter]); }

Can we append URL parameters to an endpoint based on values in a test case?

Is it possible to send input parameters to the chatbot from test cases, both with and without user input? What I have in mind is that I should be able to do this in the test cases:
Test case 1
#me
Hello
INPUT_PARAMETER sttConfidence : 0.58
INPUT_PARAMETER callerCountry : GB
#bot
Hi human! I see that you sent some input parameters. Thank you!
...
...
The input parameters need to be appended to the endpoint, so the URL would look like this:
https://MyChatBotsEndpoint.com/?userinput={{msg.messageText}}&sttConfidence=0.58& callerCountry=GB
The values that we send need to be of type string.
Is this possible to achieve in Botium? And if yes, are there any native tools in Botium that can achieve this, or do we need to develop our own function?
Edit:
This is what happens when I added the piece of code:
Example of how input parameter merges with input message
Ideally I would like it to look like this:
This is what it looks like if I manually send &countryCaller=GB to our endpoint

There is nothing like that included, but with the right combination of a logic hook and the HTTP/JSON request hook it is possible.
The UPDATE_CUSTOM logic hook will copy the parameters from the convo file to the internal Botium message object:
Test case 1
#me
Hello
UPDATE_CUSTOM QUERY_PARAM|sttConfidence|0.58
UPDATE_CUSTOM QUERY_PARAM|callerCountry|GB
#bot
Hi human! I see that you sent some input parameters. Thank you!
...
The SIMPLEREST_REQUEST_HOOK capability will then use the parameters to adapt the request url accordingly with a little Javascript code:
...
"SIMPLEREST_REQUEST_HOOK": "if (msg.QUERY_PARAM) requestOptions.uri = requestOptions.uri + '&' + Object.keys(msg.QUERY_PARAM).map(key => key + '=' + msg.QUERY_PARAM[key]).join('&')",
...
Alternative Approach
If you don't like the SIMPLEREST_REQUEST_HOOK Javascript code, you could also use Mustache templates to add the query parameters to the URL:
...
"SIMPLEREST_URL": "https://MyChatBotsEndpoint.com/?userinput={{msg.messageText}}&sttConfidence={{msg.QUERY_PARAM.sttConfidence}}&callerCountry={{msg.QUERY_PARAM.callerCountry}}"
...
(you will have empty parameters, but you can tune this mustache template as you want to exclude empty parameters).

Date range search using Google Custom Search API

I am using the Google Custom Search API to search for images. My implementation is using Java, and this is how I build my search string:
URL url = new URL("https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/services/search/images?"
+ "v=1.0&q=barack%20obama&userip=INSERT-USER-IP");
How would I modify the URL to limit search results, for example, to: 2014-08-15 and 2014-09-31?

You can specify a date range using the sort parameter. For your example, you would add this to your query string: sort=date:r:20140815:20140931.
This is documented at https://developers.google.com/custom-search/docs/structured_data#page_dates
Also if you use Google's Java API you can use the Query class and its setSort() method rather than building the URL by hand.

I think the better way is to put this into query itself. Query parameter contains 'after' flag which can be used like:
https://customsearch.googleapis.com/customsearch/v1?
key=<api_key>&
cx=<search_engine_id>&
q="<your_search_word> after:<YYYY-MM-DD>"

Ways to reliably split a URL string and extract required part

I am working on server side application of FB login.
Having converted the example here:
https://developers.facebook.com/docs/authentication/server-side/
To VB, and using System.Net.WebRequest.Create to retrieve the responses I am now able to get a text string including the access_token and the expiry time in the following format:
access_token=ACCESS&expires=2577
Obviously I can split this into an array and split the parts to get the access_token
But, on the FB Developers example above, they do it with PHP like so:
$params['access_token'];
Is there a VB.net way of doing this? This seems more reliable to me than teh aforementioned splitting idea, ie, if FB change the output format.

You can use HttpUtility.ParseQueryString to parse a query string. If you're not using ASP.NET, you should add a reference to System.Web.dll. I also don't believe this will work in .NET 4 client profile.
Imports System.Web
Imports System.Collections.Specialized
Dim qString As NameValueCollection = HttpUtility.ParseQueryString("var1=val1&var2=val2")
