Is it possible to schedule a http call in gatling like below

val scn = scenario(“My Simulation”)  
**.exec(getServerStatus) // schedule this call for every 1 min of simulation**  
.during(60 mins) {  
feed(“feed users file”)  
.exec(“http call 1”)  
.exec(“http call 2”)  
.pause(5 seconds, 10 seconds)  
}  
setUp(scn.inject(1).during(1)).protocols(http)

**getServerStatus** http call will be triggered for every 1 min. By any chance is this feature already exists ?

Thanks a lot James

A small correction in my request 🙂 looks like polling only works for request type “HttpRequestBuilder” but i need to poll **gRPC** call : [https://github.com/phiSgr/gatling-grpc/blob/master/src/test/scala/com/github/phisgr/example/GrpcExample.scala#L109](https://github.com/phiSgr/gatling-grpc/blob/master/src/test/scala/com/github/phisgr/example/GrpcExample.scala#L109) something like this

Any idea ?

“small correction” LOL

This gRPC plugin is a third party that’s not maintained here.  
You should reach out to its author directly, probably on Github.  
Nothing we could do here.
