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 299) and the extraction of the URL variable from the response.

Execute request

The execute section of the template defines the type of request to be executed, which is a single request in this case. It also specifies the modification of the URL by using the URL paths from the wordLists section.

Validation

The validation section sets the criteria for validating the response of the executed request. It checks that the response code is equal to 200 and that the response payload contains specific keywords related to Firebase configuration details.
