Dynamic text input on synthetic monitor

Osiris5654 — Wed, 21 Jun 2023 12:20:07 GMT

hello, can we do something like this? In the clickpath section of the synthetic browser Can we dynamically query the PNR number when doing online check-in? For example, we want to take the PNR numbers from file and add them to the field as in the figure.

I hope I was able to explain. Can I pull the data from a file in the Clickpath section and do this with a script? Thanks.

Hi,

I would say yes if you that file is reachable. It means, if you can make a JavaScript code to reach content in that file, and paste it in that field.

Best regards

How is the file getting updated? Is it another monitor that is creating the booking reference and this one does something with it? If that's the case, you might be better using the Credential Vault. So the first monitor could create the PNR and use the Credential Vault API to update an existing credential, and then the 2nd monitor can just reference it.

Do you have a sample of the Java Script code I can test?

In the first script, store the PNR value in a Credential Vault entry. CREDENTIALS_VAULT-xxx is the credential vault entry where you are storing the PNR, CREDENTIALS_VAULT-yyy is the token needed to update the crdential vault entry.

api.startAsyncSyntheticEvent(); var PNR = yourPNRvalue; url = 'https://yourTenant.live.dynatrace.com/api/v2/credentials/CREDENTIALS_VAULT-xxx'; pdata = '{ "name": "YourCredentialName", "type": "TOKEN", "token": "' + PNR + '"}'; api.info(pdata); fetch(url, { method: 'put', body: pdata, headers: { 'accept': 'application/json; charset=utf-8', 'Content-Type': 'application/json; charset=utf-8', 'Authorization': 'Api-Token ' + api.getCredential("CREDENTIALS_VAULT-yyy", "token") } }).then(function(res) { ResponseCode = res.status; api.info("responseCode = " + ResponseCode); return res.text(); }) .then(function(data) { if (ResponseCode == 204) { api.finish(); } else { api.fail('Update failed: ' + ResponseCode); } }) .catch(e => api.fail(e));

Then in the second script you can retrieve the PNR and set a variable with it to be used elsewhere in the script

var PNR = api.getCredential("CREDENTIALS_VAULT-xxx", "token"); api.setValue("PNR", PNR);
