I have created a load test in JMeter to retrieve a valid access token, and then perform several requests to my webAPI to test querying, which works in JMeter.
My test plan uses the JSONPathExtractor plugin to extract the token from the JSON response, before storing that token as a property for use in proceeding Test Groups. I want to upload and run these JMeter test in Visual Studio Team Services, however I am given an "internal error occurred in the service when initializing the test run".
Here is the generated log file from VSTS:

It appears that VSTS Load Testing can't find the JSONPathExtractor plugin. How can I include this in my .jmx file or supporting files upload? Many thanks!
