Hello everyone!
Could you say please whether it is possible to create a probe with two requests? 
For example the first probe makes POST-request with some data. With that data at backend a job is being created. The request returns a job id. In some time the second request checks if the job was finished.

No, the most the blackbox exporter can do is follow a redirect.

If you want to test logic beyond basic HTTP you'll need to create your own exporter.

Oh, just noticed the website www.robustperception.io in your signature. I often visit it and like it)

Hi Albert,

You may have a look here: 

It allows you to run Postman (https://www.postman.com/) collections including all the Postman features and get metrics from it.

Best regards
