Question

I would appreciate your assistance if possible , I wrote a javascript code that calculates a Fibonacci nth term, how Can I use it in Postman. I send an initial request to an endpoint and the response sends back data (a n term for example: 43) I would like to then use this received data(43) in my code to the calculate the answer and send back a post with the answer calculated from my code. P.S Im new with API etc

create a node server and there end-point for access. put the code on controller page and than access that controller with postman. — Abhishek, Feb 06 '20 at 12:41

You have to place your java script code in the “Test” tab of the request. Refer this page more info: https://learning.postman.com/docs/postman/scripts/intro-to-scripts/

Use pm.response.json() to get the value (ex., 43 in your case)
Use your fibonacci function to calculate the output.
Save the ouput to the environment using pm.environment.set()
Create a new request and get the value from the environments and use it further.
