I want to take value from one API response body and use into another api request using Cucumber gherkin

Question

Scenario: Verify the manifest of published app 1. Given Base url "baseUrl" and path "basepath" 2. And Headers are 3. And Query parameter 4. And App with below details 5. When I execute the another API with Base url "baseUrl" and path "basePath" 6. And Append with Attributevalue (complete url will be, baseUrl + basePath + AttributeValue ) 7. And api headers
8. And query parameters
9. Then Success message with 200 status code

Answer 1

I have implemented something very similar recently. You can utilize below code and modify it to your need. You'll probably need to omit some steps from your feature. Those steps are included as part of step def implementation in below code

Feature

@get
  Scenario: get employee
    
    Given an employee exist in the database with id "2"
   When  user retrieves employee info by id
    Then the status code for get employee is 200
