Using false which is not recognized.

Passing null to pm.setNextRequest() stops the collection run.

hard

Fix the error in the code to conditionally run the next request only if status code is 200.

if (pm.response.code === 200) {
    pm.setNextRequest([1]);
} else {
    pm.setNextRequest(null);
}

Drag options to blanks, or click blank then click option'

Common Mistakes

Passing a variable without quotes.

Using a property that does not exist.

Forgetting quotes causing syntax errors.

The next request name must be a string in quotes inside pm.setNextRequest().

4fill in blank

hard

Fill both blanks to run 'Login' first, then 'GetData' only if login succeeds.

Postman

if (pm.response.code === 200) {
    pm.setNextRequest([1]);
} else {
    pm.setNextRequest([2]);

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Swapping the request names.

Using strings instead of null to stop.

Forgetting quotes around request names.

If login succeeds (status 200), run 'GetData'. Otherwise, stop the run with null.

5fill in blank

hard

Fill all three blanks to create a loop that runs 'CheckStatus' until status is 200, then stops.

Postman

if (pm.response.code !== 200) {
    pm.setNextRequest([1]);
} else {
    pm.setNextRequest([2]);
}

// Log the current request name
console.log([3]);

Drag options to blanks, or click blank then click option'

A'CheckStatus'

Bnull

Cpm.info.requestName

D'Start'

Attempts:

3 left

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Using wrong request names.

Not stopping the run properly.

Logging a wrong variable.

If status is not 200, repeat 'CheckStatus'. Otherwise, stop the run. The current request name is logged using pm.info.requestName.
