How can I retrieve the total number of records (count) in an XML response using PostMan?

Hello, I'm currently attempting to determine the length of an XML response but I'm running into some issues. The error message I am encountering is as follows: "There was an error in evaluating the test script: ReferenceError: xml2json is not defined." My script looks like this:

var myData = xml2json(responseBody);
console.log(responseBody);
var body = JSON.parse(myData);
tests["Response Count is:  " + myData.markers && myData.markers.length] = true;

Can anyone suggest an alternative method for calculating the length of an XML response? Additionally, I have tried using the URL format=JSON but only get a null or undefined value printed in the console.

Answer №1

While looking for a solution, I stumbled upon this method which successfully solved my issue. This snippet was effective for me when working with Postman 10.12.13 and Cheerio to count objects in an S3 bucket on AWS. The specific XML structure being targeted is ListBucketResult>Contents.

var xml = cheerio.load(pm.response.text());
console.log('The number of nodes in the XML: ' + xml('Contents').length);
