Action notes
- For
ReqSet
and ReqAppend
the
value to set or append can be specified a couple different ways. You
can either use a literal string by setting ReplaceString to the required
text, or you can pull data from the request or response by using Section
, Field
, ValueName
, StartPattern
, StartPatternRE
, EndPattern
and/or EndPatternRE
.
- When you useg
StartPattern
or StartPatternRE
with
one of these actions the RepeatCount is always set to 1 (the first
match is always used).
IgnoreSpecial
is always True for these actions
when Section
is specified. There is no special handling
for the urlfield
or cookies
sections
with these actions.
- The value for a field (name/value pair) can be cleared without
removing the entire field by using
ReplaceString
with
no value:
ReplaceString=
- All carriage-returns and linefeeds in the value string are replaced
with
\r
and \n
.
- Privacy changes are queued and applied after all actions are complete. This
means that actions normally see the original data.
ReqSet
, ReqAppend
and ReqDelete
keep track of
field additions, changes, and deletions, so multiple changes to a
single field (such adding a field then concatenating addition data
to the value) can be done safely. Since the Replace action can affect
any arbitrary piece of data in the request or response, it is not
included in this change tracking. Changes that are made to field values
are best done by using ReqSet
and ReqAppend
.
- When you use use
Field
or ValueName
with ReqSet
or ReqAppend
you
must specify a single field or value name. If there are multiple names
the value for the last item that found is used.
- Similar to the note above, you must avoid specifying only a section
to retrieve the value for a
ReqSet
or ReqAppend
.
Doing so results in the value from the last field (name/value pair)
in the section that is used for the ReqSet
or ReqAppend
.
