How this template works
APIs Selection
The API selection filters in this template specify the criteria for selecting the API requests to be executed. In this case, the filters include the response code range (between 200 and 300) and the extraction of the URL into a variable called "urlVar".
Execute request
The execute section defines the type of request to be executed, which is "single" in this case. It also specifies the request to be made, which includes modifying the URL by appending "/airflow.cfg" to the extracted URL variable (${urlVar}).
Validation
The validation section defines the criteria for validating the response of the executed request. It includes checking the response code to be within the range of 200 to 300 and ensuring that the response payload contains specific strings, such as '[core]' and '[api]'. If the validation criteria are met, the request is considered successful.
