I am new to PACT and I have completed the publishing pacts to the pact broker from the consumer and I also verified the pacts against the running Provider. This works awesome.
All the requests I have should have an active token to verify the pact against the provider. Is there a way to modify the auth token before triggering verification tasks? I need this to be done when I am doing the verification when I provider makes a change. I am using mvn pact:verify to verify the contracts.
Can someone help me with this? Is there a sample to check?

There's some general guidelines there.

09/01/2023, 11:11 AMHi @Matt (pactflow.io / pact-js / pact-go),
I made the changes like this
I am using Provider version 4.5.6, but still I am not able to replace the token.
I run mvn pact:verify to verify my test cases. Am I missing something ?

09/01/2023, 11:12 AMI hard-coded both valid and invalid token, but still I don't see it gets applied during provider verification

09/01/2023, 12:14 PMThis is the place where I am stuck and want to find a way to replace the valid token when the provider tries to verify the contracts when a new version is deployed. Your Help is much appreciated. @Matt (pactflow.io / pact-js / pact-go)
Java Version 17
Pact Provider Version 4.5.6
I am running the test using "mvn pact:verify" command.
I tried adding the Auth token in verifyPact method but still this is not getting updated.

Do you know if that method is being invoked?

If you set log level to DEBUG, we should be able to see the request/response from the verifier to the actual provider.

09/04/2023, 4:23 AMHi @Matt (pactflow.io / pact-js / pact-go), The method is not being called when I run mvn pact:verify
Can we use requestFilter in pom.xml?

Worth noting this warning: https://docs.pact.io/implementation_guides/jvm/provider/maven

This is the docs section for it: https://docs.pact.io/implementation_guides/jvm/provider/maven#modifying-the-requests-before-they-are-sent

09/05/2023, 4:50 AMHi @Matt (pactflow.io / pact-js / pact-go),
I tried writing groovy scripts with <requestFilters> but I am getting error A required class was missing while executing au.com.dius.pact.providermaven4.6.2verify org/apache/ivy/util/MessageLogger
But the dependencies are downloaded but it in not included in pact verify step. Does this needs any fix?

The below code works perfect
<requestFilter>
request.setHeader('Authorization', 'Bearer eyJhbGciOiJS***')
</requestFilter>
I am able to replace the header 'Authorization' but I want to dynamically change the token. Is there any way to do that?
