Random Numeric

Overview​

Use the random numeric transform to generate a random number of any length.

Transform structure​

The random numeric transform only requires the standard type and name attributes:

{
  "type": "randomNumeric",
  "name": "Random Numeric Transform"
}

Attributes​

  • Required Attributes

    • type - This must always be set to randomNumeric.
    • name - This is a required attribute for all transforms. It represents the name of the transform as it will appear in the UI's dropdown menus.

  • Optional Attributes

    • requiresPeriodicRefresh - This true or false value indicates whether the transform logic should be reevaluated every evening as part of the identity refresh process.
    • length - This is the integer value specifying the required size/number of digits the random number must contain.
      • This value must be a positive number and cannot be blank.
      • If no length is provided, the transform defaults to a value of 10.
      • Due to identity attribute data constraints, the maximum allowable value is 450 characters.

Examples​

No explicit length is provided, so this transform generates a 10-digit random integer, such as "2334776774".

Transform request body:

{
  "type": "randomNumeric",
  "name": "Random Numeric Transform"
}

 

This transform generates a 6-digit random integer, such as "759931".

Transform request body:

{
  "attributes": {
    "length": "6"
  },
  "type": "randomNumeric",
  "name": "Random Numeric Transform"
}
