I have large text files, which should be Base64 encoded. I tried to open it in Notepad++ and encode it with Base64 converter plugin. It was finished in ~10 minutes, but I cannot select output string to use it in JMeter. Files are to long to select it and copy to some converters.

Have you tried this: https://stackoverflow.com/a/3715530/8293848 only three lines of python code. No need to open/copy/paste in editor. – Hayati Gonultas Jan 29 '18 at 10:05

@HayatiGonultas : How to paste in JMeter suite without copying it? – plaidshirt Jan 29 '18 at 10:08

I hope jmeter and other converters accepts input from file. In fact it seems that jmeter does accept file input. – Hayati Gonultas Jan 29 '18 at 10:13

No, it can't, check this: https://bz.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=61732 – plaidshirt Jan 29 '18 at 11:53

You can use the following functions combination:
- __FileToString() - comes with JMeter already
- __base64Encode() - provided by JMeter Plugins project as a part of Custom JMeter Functions bundle
The syntax would be:
${__base64Encode(${__FileToString(/path/to/your/file,,)},)}
You can install __base64Encode() (and other) functions using JMeter Plugins Manager:
