LoadRunner external file Parametrisation

Question

I have a .xml file in external files and I want to parameterize a field. I am not able to do it directly. Is there any way we can parameterize the field? So I have a vugen script:

web_custom_request("getInfo", "METHOD = POST",
"URL = "https://someurl.com",
"BodyfilePath=payload.xml",
LAST);

So you want to open a file stream (fopen, fread, fclose...) before the web request, parameterize the field, write the file and send it then in the request body? — twinge, Nov 26 '21 at 14:04

       <dd>{MyLoadRunnerParameter}</dd>
     </yadayada>";


lr_save_string("giggity","MyLoadRunnerParameter" );
lr_message("print this %s",
    lr_eval_string(myxmlbuffer) );
