// following test will verify the expected response code for this request

pm.test("Status code is 201", function () {
    pm.response.to.have.status(201);
});

// this tests if the file-id is received and then updates the postman environment with it
pm.test("file-id received", function () {
    var jsonData = pm.response.json();
    pm.expect(jsonData.fileId).not.eql(undefined);
    if (jsonData.fileId !== undefined) {
        console.log("file-id:"+jsonData.fileId)
        pm.environment.set("file-id", jsonData.fileId);
