06/22/2023, 7:50 AMGood morning, I tried to find in the chat for a solution for my problem but I didn’t find anything, so I will write it then 🙂 I am sending a POST call to wiremock with a body and I would like to know if there is a way to get some of the data from the body and return it in the response of the Stub. Thanks a lot!

06/22/2023, 8:16 AMHi, I have a use case where I call an Endpoint to update the User data with a new Email. The Endpoint, after updating the user data, returns the new UserData object. But, as the Response of the Stub is hardcoded, the new UserData Object contains the “old” data.

06/22/2023, 8:17 AMThe thing is that we have some Appium tests and we configured to go through Wiremock or to real Backend using a variable

What data format is the request body you are sending?
