Postman Tutorial Part 51 -Printing Request Body & Response Body in Postman Console

As a part of Postman Tutorial – End to End , in this post, we will learn “How to print Request and Response body in console?”.

We have already learnt to retrieve Request and Response body in Postman but as this is a frequently asked interview question on Postman, so I am combining concepts in a small post separately.

Code to get Request Body:-

var jsonReq = JSON.parse(pm.request.body.raw);

var jsonRes = pm.response.json();

To print just put in console.log(). To extract value from JSON body, you can write json path which we have seen already. You can refer those concepts here.

Complete code:-

// "raw" gives string. So need to parse in to JSON
 var jsonReq = JSON.parse(pm.request.body.raw);
 var jsonRes = pm.response.json();
 console.log("Request body is as below: ")
 console.log(jsonReq)
 console.log("Response body is as below: ")
 console.log(jsonRes)
