VistasHow to retrieve global varibles configured on the request url in the pre-request script
I am preparing a postman sample that uses some global variables in the url parameters.
The valibles {{api-url}} and {{public-address}} are defined under Globals.
I also have a script in Pre-request Script where it tries to retrieve the request url.
var url = pm.request.url
console.log("URL=" + url)However when I run this I do not get the url with the global variables filled in. Instead I get the below;
For the request itself I get the varibales filled in , I had to mask them due to privacy reasons.
I believe at the time of the Pre-reuest script the request url may not have filled with global variables? If so how can I get these valies in the url?
I definitely can re construct the URL in the Pre-request script itsef, but then that would duplicate things ...

It appears that the actual request is resolving those values in the UI. If you're just needing to resolve the same in the log output, it would be like this:
let url = pm.request.url
console.log("URL=" + pm.variables.replaceIn(url))
As the log statement is just a string value of the UI, the variables are displayed as they are in the request URL. You would need to use replaceIn() to substitute those for the resolved values.
