Postman : TypeError: Cannot read property 'Response' of undefined

I want to extract a data from Postman response (in my test sNomPrimaire) to use it after as a variable, when i try to see the console log i get this error (TypeError: Cannot read property 'Response' of undefined).

This is my script

var jsonData = pm.response.json();
pm.globals.get(jsonData.results.Response.sNomPrimaire);
console.log("Test to get NomPrimaire:", jsonData.results.Response.sNomPrimaire);

This is my postman response :

{
"Response": {
    "id": "11452",
    "iSystExtUserId": null,
    "sCourriel": "[email protected]",
    "sIdentifiant": null,
    "sNomPrimaire": "testfirstname",
    "sNomSecondaire": "restlastname",
    "bOpen": false,
    "bVerified": false,
 
},
"InvalidApiVersion": 0,
"ErrorMessage": "",
"iHttpStatusCode": "201"
}

Unless that's a dummy email address, you should remove it from your post.

Little late to this, but this is the approach I would take (not sure I completely understand the question, though.. I am assuming you are making some type of comparison between response bodies):

if (responseBody.length === 0) return console.warn("Empty response");

var res = JSON.parse(responseBody);

var initialResponse = pm.globals.get("initial_response");

if (typeof initialResponse !== "string") // it hasn't been set yet
{
    pm.globals.set("initial_response", res.Response.sNomPrimaire); // May need to be res["Response"].sNomPrimaire, as Danny pointed out
}
else
{
    makeSomeTypeOfComparison(initialResponse, res.Response.sNomPrimaire);
    pm.globals.unset("initial_response"); // if you want to reset your variables after one iteration
    // I advise using collection-level variables for things of this nature, though. e.g.
    // pm.collectionVariables.unset("initial_response");
}

It does seem like the presumed end-goal could be handled in a more productive way. Reach out if you need any help. I am quite versed in Postman. Try asking your question with more details so people can better help you.

You would need to use this instead of what you have there in your test:

pm.globals.set("var_name", jsonData.Response.sNomPrimaire)

Not sure where you got results from but it's not needed.
