Jmeter - convert a string to base64
I've just started out trying to write some tests in jmeter. It's the first time I've used it in earnest, and I'm struggling a bit with it.
I am running a test that searches for data on a website.
The returned data is in the format baseURL/customerID=
Now, the customer number depends on the customer being searched for and it is in base64.
I'm struggling to see how I can get the url updated.
I can see in the request that the field is parameter, and I know what the value is, as I have it stored in a csv file as CustomerID.
How can I convert that csv data to the url parameter?
I'm trying to use beanshell at the moment with this:
import org.apache.commons.codec.binary.Base64;
String customerID = vars.get("customerID");
String customerStringEncoded = Bas64Encoder.encode(customerID);
vars.put("customerStringEncoded",customerStringEncoded);
But it seems that it can't locate customerID.
I am supplying it wiht ${CustomerID} in the preprossor menu option, but I don't know what is wrong.
the error is "Typed variable declaration : Attempt to resolve method: encode() on undefined variable or class name: Bas64Encoder
"
Any tips?
Thanks

If the data is being stored in csv, you can use the "CSV Data Set config" to read the CSV File. CSVhttp://jmeter.apache.org/usermanual/component_reference.html#CSV_Data_Set_Config

Hi there. Thanks for responding. I am reading my data from the CSV data set config. Within that file I also have names and other search criteria. The data in the csv file is stored in a text format, but I want to convert it to base64 for the URL. I could do this in the file beforehand, but it would mean changing that data every time I update that file. I want change the format in jmeter. I think I'm close with this piece of code:vars.put("CustomerID", new String(Base64.EncodeBase64($CustomerID})));but I'm having trouble converting it back into a variable to use

I seem to be getting closer. I'm currently trying thisint num = vars.get(${CustomerID});However, it seems that you can't use vars.get with an int. Anyone know how to convert it?

You can use Integer.parseInt(vars.get("")) to convert into an integer
