Cannot use "access_token" from my webhook response

[Terry Dance]

My webhook successfully gets a token back, but I cannot use it any anything as Jira just fails to grab it. I've tried putting it into a variable, a comment or directly into the next webhook but its always blank.

My response is this;

Response

200OK

Headers (6)

Content-Type: application/vnd.appd.cntrl+json;v=1

x-content-type-options: nosniff

x-frame-options: SAMEORIGIN

x-xss-protection: 1; mode=block

Content-Length: 700

Connection: keep-alive

Payload

{
  "access_token": "xxx",
  "expires_in": 5
}

To access the token I've tried

{{webResponse.body.access_token}}

{{webhookResponse.body.access_token}}

{{webResponse.body.substringBetween("access_token\":", ",") }} - this works but leaves the " marks at beginning an end of the token, and trying to find the token between the 2 "'s doesnt work.

Anyone have an idea?

Managed to create a "smart" variable with this

{{webhookresponse.body.substringBetween("access_token\": \"", "\",\"expires") }}

Hi @Terry Dance ,

Probably you'd need to follow the steps at: https://confluence.atlassian.com/jirakb/manually-formatting-webresponse-to-json-in-automation-1252006605.html

@Terry Dance if you use the {{webResponse.body.access_token}} smartvalue and then make sure you select the checkbox for the "Delay execution of subsequent rule actions until we've received a response for this web request" 

This will ensure you received the access token prior to trying to execute your next action.
