JMeter POST request

Question

Here is what i tried in the HTTP sampler:

Web Server name <host>
HTTP request PATH <host>

In the send parameters with the request section - I understand we can add as many parameter as we want. Here is what I tried:

{ "customer": {"Name": "TestID1"} }
{ "customer": {"Name": "TestID2"} }

When I run the test, I see TestID1 in my host, but I dont see the TestID2 customer. Can you please guide me to understand how to do send multiple POST request? Thank you

Do you want to send on request with two parameters or two requests with one parameter? — Christopher Roscoe
2 requests with 2 different parameter. But since the request URL is the same, I didn't want to create two separate HTTP sampler. I want to use 1 http sampler to send 2 request simultaneously. — Sashi
I am curious why do you want to do that? Is that how actual browser send the requests? — Manish Sapariya

What you need is a "User Parameters" Pre Processor. http://jmeter.apache.org/usermanual/component_reference.html#User_Parameters

Add variable name and define User_1 with value "TestID1" and User_2 with value "TestID2". In your HTTP Sampler use parameter customer = ${name} once.
