How this template works
APIs Selection
The template uses API selection filters to extract a specific value from the URL. In this case, it extracts the value of the "url" parameter and assigns it to the variable "urlVar".
Execute request
The template performs a single request using the modified URL. It modifies the URL by appending a message and a fake website URL. The modified URL is then used to make the request.
Validation
The template validates the response received from the request. It checks if the response payload contains a specific message indicating that the URL has been changed to a fake website. It also checks if the response headers contain the "Content-Type" header with a value indicating that the response is in HTML format.
