Generate Random Value

Description​

Generate Random Value produces random data of various types, including random numbers, integers, strings, UUIDs, and HMAC-based message authentication codes. Use this step when your workflow needs unique identifiers, randomized test data, or security tokens — for example, generating a UUID for each transaction record or creating random strings for password resets. Each generated value is output as a new field that downstream steps can use for processing, filtering, or output.
