UniqueId

This function generates a unique value. This is typically used in a Set Values Test Step to create a variable, which can then be referred to to generate and identify test data during a test.

FormatUniqueId(Length, Format)

Note that Length and Format are both optional. If not supplied, the UniqueId value will be 12 alphanumeric characters.

Examples:

{UniqueId(8)}– This will generate a unique ID, length 8, of alphanumeric characters, e.g. I67OOO54

{UniqueId(12,NUMERIC)}– This will generate a unique ID, length 12, using numbers only, e.g., 412373164167

{UniqueId(12,ALPHA)}– This will generate a unique ID, length 12, using letters only, e.g., GTWAWNZYWSIC

{UniqueId(36,UUID)}– This will generate a universally unique ID, length 36, e.g., 8398e3c6-94ef-4e90-a809-03191424fda0
