Refresh access token and reuse it for further iterations

[priya-dsp]

We are running a test for duration of more than one hour and have an API that generates Authorization bearer token which expires for an hour, how to rerun this api for every 45 minutes? All users generates unique token.

Hi @priya-dsp,

Typically you would set that token in the context in a before hook, and then fetch a new token periodically using e.g. beforeScenario hooks.

I'll add an example of doing this to our examples when I get a chance, as it's a common enough use case :)

@bernardobridge ,Thanks for your reply. If we are using before hook to call Api that generates access token, then all Vusers will be using same access token. But, in our scenario, we need to generate access token for each Vusers and reuse the user token in following iterations. How to control the throughput of this API? Can you please provide an example?
