How to use curl's response in other run commands in github actions

Question

Trying to get the response from curl and use it in subsequent commands. Not sure what should be the correct syntax here.

    - name: Get Token    
    run: |
      response = $(curl https://********* -header "Accept: application/json" -header "X-Username: ${{ secrets.USER_NAME }}" -header "X-Password: ${{ secrets.PASSWORD }}")         
      echo "response from curl= $response"

Answer 2

I was able to solve this using below approach

  - name: GET all workspace
    run: | 
          curl --location --request GET 'https://api.getpostman.com/workspaces' --header 'X-API-Key: ${{ secrets.API_TOKEN }}' -o workspaces.json

  - name: read workspace id
    id: workspace 
    run: echo "::set-output name=id::$(cat workspaces.json | jq -c '.workspaces[] | select(.name == "My Workspace").id')"

  - name: print workspace id
    run: echo ${{ steps.workspace.outputs.id }}

  - name: GET api's in workspace
    run: | 
          curl --location --request GET "https://api.getpostman.com/apis?workspace=${{ steps.workspace.outputs.id }}" --header 'X-API-Key: ${{ secrets.API_TOKEN }}' -o apis.json

  - name: Read api id in workspace
    id: api 
    run: echo "::set-output name=id::$(cat apis.json | jq -c '.apis[] | select(.name == "testing-service").id')"

  - name: Print api id
    run: echo ${{ steps.api.outputs.id }}
