My API Token disappears

[timalex]

I'm building a flow that needs to obtain a login token from our Barracuda WAF via API which I do via POST.

This works fine and the Token is received in tact. 

I then parse the JSON to make it usable for any next steps. 

Still fine. 

When i try to use the value of the token that's been parsed it's coming back as null and for the LIFE of me i can't figure out why. 

See it's there ^^^

This is how I'm attempting to use that value ^^^

And "poof" it's now gone.

What the fudge y'all?

I've tried initializing it as a variable and setting it that way, and same result, it's null and gone. 

Please tell me someone knows what I'm missing or doing wrong. 

Thanks in advance

Can you try 2 things to troubleshoot?

• Add Compose and map it to JSON Token property and see if it shows .
• Copy token from your logs and Hardcode in HTTP call and see if it works?

Hello, @timalex!

That's very strange, I'll be investigating to see if I find something! In the meantime, could you please try initializing a variable and then checking with a conditional to see if it equals "null"? 

Anything I find, I'll post it here right away! 

Cheers

Thanks for the suggestion PrasadAthalye,

So I have added a Compose action and mapped it to the JSON Token Property like so:

And then I try and pass that to the HTTP GET like so:

And when I run it, it is now just blank and not even null any longer:

I can't use the hard code option because each time i generate the token it changes. 

I appreciate all of the suggestions, thank you!

Thank you rrovira,

  So i've initialized and set the variable as below:

I didn't use a conditional, because i can see it's still "null" in the test logs as below:

Thanks again for responding, i appreciate it. There has to be a solution i just can't 'see' it yet 🙂

Can you upload JSON Parse Output?

[timalex]

That's the entirety of the JSON Parse Output. 

{

    "body": {

        "token": "eyJldCI6IjE2MjI1NjkzNTMiLCJwdjas72384kf9284kfo882kWU4YjBmM2Y4ODFiM2U2\nNWUyZThmIiwidXNlciI6InRzdGV2ZW5zX2FkbWluIn0=\n"

    }

}

I also added a condition to check to see if the token value was indeed null and on it's first test run it returned 'true'
