Set Variable: generation

📘

A variable must exist before you can manipulate it. To create a new variable, see Create a Variable.

  1. In the Set Variable behavior, select the variable you want to modify.

  2. In the Create Value From field, select Generate.

  3. Select a generator: Random Number or Hex Random.

    Random number

    The edge servers generate a numerical value within a minimum and maximum value you set.

    Minimum value. Choose the minimum number the edge servers will use to generate a value.

    Maximum value. Choose the maximum number the edge servers will use to generate a value.

    The edge servers randomly pick a number between the minimum and maximum values you specify.

    Hex random

    Have the edge servers create a value using only hexadecimal characters (0-9,A-F).

    Number of bytes. Set the length of your generated value.

  4. Optionally, in the Operation field, apply a transformation.
