allows to use a variable for a file body

[glb-cblin]

Problem to solve

I have a test file to run for multiple data

Inside the test file, I have this

POST {{PUBLIC_URL}}/public-picture-api/my-pictures
Authorization: Bearer {{id_token}}
Content-Type: application/json
#TODO: hurl does not allow to use a var to specify a file like "file,{{JSON_REQUEST_FILE}};" so we use same picture for all users :(
file,add-picture.body.json;

Proposal

I'd like to use file,{{RIB_REQUEST}};

Hi @glb-cblin

Thanks for the feedback, you should be able to use variable in filename, indeed. The Hurl grammar specifies that you can templatize the filename (see https://hurl.dev/docs/grammar.html#oneline-file) but we haven't implemented it yet. Noted!
