The utils object $Utils provides access to some utility functions for generating values for specific types
| Name | Description | Type | Usage Example | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| GetBoolean(string value) | Parses specified value or variable to a boolean, allowing boolean operations and functions. | Boolean | $Utils.GetBoolean(%truthyVariable%).And(True)$ | True |
| GetDate(string value) | Parses specified value or variable to a date, allowing date operations and functions | Date | ||
| GetDateTime(string value) | Parses specified value or variable to a date-time, allowing date-time operations and functions. | DateTime | ||
| GetNumber(number value) | Parses specified value or variable to a number, allowing numeric operations and functions. | Number | ||
| GetNumber(datetime value) | Returns the number of ticks in a specified date-time value. | Number | ||
| GetString(string value) | Parses specified value or variable to a string, allowing string operations and functions. | String | ||
| GetTime(string value) | Parses specified value or variable to a time, allowing time operations and functions. | Time | ||
| NewGuid([string formatString]) | Create a new randomly generated GUID, optionally with a specified format. | String | $Utils.NewGuid$ | "da47b2d6-3580-48ed-b27a-f152da2345e6" |
RandomNumber([integer maxValue]) | Generate a new random integer value. If one parameter is provided it designates a random number in the range of greater than or equal to zero and less than the maxValue number provided will be generated. If no parameters are provided a 32-bit integer greater than or equal to zero and less than Int32 max value (2,147,483,647) will be generated. | Integer | $Utils.RandomNumber("10")$ $Utils.RandomNumber$ | 2 1906529119 |
| RandomNumber(integer minValue, integer maxValue) | Generate a new random integer value. The parameters provided designate the range for the generated number. A random number in the range of greater than or equal to minValue and less than the maxValue will be generated. | Integer | $Utils.RandomNumber("1", "10")$ | 5 |
