store json is one of the commands in Selenium IDE.
The purpose of the store json command is to retrieve and store json content into a variable in Selenium IDE.
In this article, I am going to practically demonstrate store json command in Selenium IDE to retrieve and store the json content into a variable and then print the json content stored in the variable.
Let’s get started.
New Selenium IDE – store json command
Follow the below steps for practicing store json command in Selenium IDE along with me:
1) Let’s write the below code in Selenium IDE to retrieve and store the json content into a variable and then print the json content stored in the variable using the ‘echo’ command.
[su_table alternate=”no”]
| Command | Target | Value |
|---|---|---|
| open | http://omayo.blogspot.com/ | |
| store json | { “glossary”: { “title”: “example glossary”, “GlossDiv”: { “title”: “S”, “GlossList”: { “GlossEntry”: { “ID”: “SGML”, “SortAs”: “SGML”, “GlossTerm”: “Standard Generalized Markup Language”, “Acronym”: “SGML”, “Abbrev”: “ISO 8879:1986”, “GlossDef”: { “para”: “A meta-markup language, used to create markup languages such as DocBook.”, “GlossSeeAlso”: [“GML”, “XML”] }, “GlossSee”: “markup” } } } } } | x |
| echo | ${x} |
[/su_table]
After incorporating the commands in the above table, our Selenium IDE should look like below:
2) Run the test and observe that the test will be passed and the json content stored into a variable and then printed in the ‘Log’ tag as shown below:
Note: JSON content will be stored in an object format and will be printed as an object as shown below:

Yes, you can to do it on Selenium IDE. Using
