Random Variables
You can create two types of random variables: string and numerical.
Random variables are useful when you need to generate a random, repetitive string or numerical set. The values are generated when you run the task.
Common use cases:
- String: Generating test data as input for fields or forms
- Numerical: Generating ID numbers in batch
After you create the variable, you can use it by inserting the variable in several of the Workbench commands.
