HTTP Client reference
The client object holds the HTTP Client session metadata (such as the list of global variables) and lets you test the HTTP response and log text in the output. The HTTP Client session is started when DataGrip starts, and ends when DataGrip is closed. Values are not preserved between DataGrip restarts.
The client object oprovides access to the global nested object that serves as a variable storage.
Creates a test with the name testName and body func. All tests are executed after the response handler script. Test results are displayed in the Tests tab of the Services tool window.
Parameter | Type | Description |

The global variables storage, which is used for setting, retrieving, or removing variables.
Once you assign a value to a global variable (client.global.set(VariableName, VariableValue)), you can access it as {{VariableName}} in subsequent HTTP requests or using client.global.get("VariableName") in response handler scripts and pre-request scripts. See Use global variables for a more detailed example.
The global object serves as a variable storage and is used for setting, retrieving, or removing variables. These variables are global because, once set, they can be accessed from any HTTP request.
Saves the variable with the varName name to the storage and sets its value to varValue. See Use global variables for a more detailed example.
Parameter | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
varName | String | The name of the variable to be saved to the global storage. |
varValue | String | The variable value to be saved to the global storage. |
Returns the value of the varName variable.
Parameter | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
varName | String | The name of the variable to be returned. |
Checks whether the global object has no variables defined.
Removes the varName variable from the variables storage.
Parameter | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
varName | String | The name of the variable to be removed. |
Removes all variables from the variables storage.
