PUT body does not get imported from openapi yaml file

I have checked the following:

Describe the bug

When importing a collection from an openapi yaml file, the request body will not be imported if the http method is PUT.

.bru file to reproduce the bug

YAML FILE:

I was able to reproduce the bug. I'll be happy to work on this issue. 👍

Hi @FabianDach, thanks for reporting this. @arshan1019, please go for it!

I also got problem with PUT Request's body. It's seem like that with a large request, thee payload has been stripped down some byte in the end, make the request failed.

I redirected to a proxy and find out that.

Hey @directentis1 @FabianDach @sreelakshmi-bruno

I don't think the issue is specific to PUT requests. The issue is there regardless of the Request Method

Here’s my YAML file for reference:

openapi: 3.0.3
info:
  title: Example API
  version: 1.0.0
paths:
  /:
    patch:
      operationId: testPatch
      requestBody:
        content:
          application/json:
            schema:
              $ref: "#/components/schemas/test"
    put:
      operationId: testPut
      requestBody:
        content:
          application/json:
            schema:
              $ref: "#/components/schemas/test"
    post:
      operationId: testPost
      requestBody:
        content:
          application/json:
            schema:
              $ref: "#/components/schemas/test"
components:
  schemas:
    test:
      type: object
      properties:
        id:
          format: int64
          type: integer
        name:
          type: string

The output: for PATCHRequest:

for PUT Request:

for POST Request: Notice the POST Request body is also not imported.

This is the code responsible for resolution of the references.

I suspect the visitedItems Set that is shared among the recursive calls. When the first reference is resolved, the visitedItems set is updated with the refPath. Now for the 2nd and 3rd (considering the linked yaml file in the above comment), the code checks if the refPath already present in the visitedItems Set. Since its already present in the Set and marked as visited it does not parse (resolve) the reference resulting in no body for the 2nd and 3rd requests.

Additionally, during the recursive resolution process, if a $ref is encountered again, the function uses the shared visitedItems

Pls correct me if I am wrong. I am new to this stuff.

[arshan1019]

@sreelakshmi-bruno @directentis1 @FabianDach Hopefully, I was able to solve the issue. The key was to pass a new instance of visitedItems Set for each recursive call by using new Set(visitedItems). This way, each branch of the recursion maintains its own tracking of resolved references.
