Setting token after login

This is to set variable token so you don't need to keep on copy paste the bearer.

// let's say we have this

{
	"success": true,
	"data": {
		"token": "18|TOreJ7lLOGgdfviF8b3NdAJn8Fqo2gwx1TXhemyqav8900b31e",
		"name": "User",
	},
	"message": "User login successfully."
}

Go to After-response

Add this

const jsonBody = insomnia.response.json();
const body = insomnia.response.json();
const token = body.data.token;

if (token) {
	insomnia.environment.set("token", token);
}
