Genesys Cloud - Main

Hi there,
the below was released yesterday, is the more details/description on how/where to configure this?

Use random functions in Architect decision actions

Administrators and contact center managers can now use random functions as building blocks in Decision actions. The Random function generates a random decimal value and the RandomInt function generates a random integer value. These functions make it easier to steer calls to different paths based on the returned value. For more information, see Architect expression help and the Expression Help within Architect. This feature requires one of the following subscriptions: Genesys Cloud User 1, Genesys Cloud User 2, or Genesys Cloud User 3.

Hi Reginald

I actually jumped onto this pretty quickly when it was released as I'm in the middle of building something that needs it.  When you go to the expression editor you can find the two new random functions - Random and RandomInt.  Random will give you a random decimal figure, RandomInt a random "full" integer.  The parameters are also listed there but it's pretty straight forward:

eg

eg

randomInt(100)

OUTPUT

86 ( this generates a random number that is greater than or equal to 0 and less than or equal to 100 )

That bit about "greater than or equal to 0" is important to note

You can also use it to generate random negative integers too if you wanted that for any reason.
