Use response body in the next senario

If I have a scenario like this:

Scenario: get a list of all categories
  When method get
  Then status 200
  And match response == '#array'
! And def first = response[0]    <-- Define the first element of the response array as 'first'

Scenario: get details about the first category
  Given path first.id
  When status 200
  And match response == read('firstCategory.json')

Questions:

1. Is something possible
2. If yes, how 😃 ?

@ptrthomas thank you very much, it works now, but I have to put the preparation scenario in an other feature. 👍

To summarize, there are 2 different way:

1. To make one big scenario or
2. To put the init part in a extra feature

I’m thinking about such a tag, like #karate-test or #karate-rest-test, or simply #karate.

Thanks for your help and for the amazing framework 😃

Great ! BTW I was thinking of the tag name as #karate-dsl
