This is exactly what I am trying to do right now: Capture a stateToken and a SAMLResponse. Apparently, I am below a beginner, because I cannot understand the code provided. The .check(jsonPath("$..token").exists.saveAs("authToken")) code makes sense, but I cannot figure out where to insert it in my existing Scala code.

when I add the .check to my Scala, I get the error "cannot resolve symbol check"

And what is the "extra" parenthesis on the next line. It seems to be unmatched.

In my existing code I have this

.body(StringBody("{\"password\":\"ugly898p\",\"username\":\"x019785\",\"options\":{\"warnBeforePasswordExpired\":true,\"multiOptionalFactorEnroll\":true},\"stateToken\":\"00P8sbB2MC-fuCv4FzfZVMvM7QJlwHYfOsiL1DtuOZ"\"}"))))

The stateToken is already being provided in the login step, so I somehow need to capture it earlier.

I am taking a Gatling class on Udemy now, but since I have never written Json or Scala, I feel like I am reading Hindi.

Can you also show example where you hit the oAuth server to fetch the bearer token and then use this token to hit api from different server. Since I am beginner, sample usage will be really appreciated.
