My token expires in 2 hours, is there a way to refresh the token while executing the script to get the new token and continue the flow? I do have a CSV file with 15000+ records, when ramping up users in the simulation file, it is supposed to make 300000 api invocations. I am wondering what if the t…

You have 2 options: renew the token preemptively: in your loop, use a doIf to periodically test the elapsed time and if the token is about to expire, renew it renew the token on expiration: on each request, save the status with a check and after the request, using a doIf, renew the token if the st…

i have a question on the option 2. if the request is failing for the expired token , and using doif trigger the post request with the valid token after the renewal, will it not in the first place -(the first time the request was made with expired token) log failures in the report (or) capture error …

ok, Thank you for the clarification. I found the answer that you recommended, and i do have a question that I want to clarify please. Recommended answer by you: Pseudo code (in Java, supported since Gatling 3.7): // global mutable reference to a shared token private volatile String token = null; …

This code creates a shared token but doesn’t refresh it periodically. You could have the token scenario loop with a pause. But then the actual scenario can’t wait for it to start, so you’ll have to start after a short delay to make sure the first token is fetched.

Can you please clarify why the token scenario loop should have a pause? From the code above, i thought the token refreshes for every 15 mins , when you say to add a pause , do you mean to add a pause in the refresh scenario in the setup block in the simulation file? [image] slandelle: But then …

The pause would be the duration between 2 refreshes. I’m afraid I’ve gone as far as can help here. You might want to consider getting consulting/mentoring.

realized that you were referring to Pace with forever loop- a special kind of Pause, that makes sense, to wait between two refreshes, thank you, Can you please confirm if i understood correctly? Secondly, Without forever , the auth_token_refresh did not run for every 2 minutes, with pace. Hence i …
