Expressions
An expression is a token in curly brackets, such as {num:3}. The bot swaps it for a value each time a task starts. One profile can then check out with a different email address, or a slightly different address line, on every run.
Email address
{first}.{last}{num:3}@mydomain.com{ }
Resolves to
sam.carter482@mydomain.comsam.carter017@mydomain.comsam.carter935@mydomain.comsam.carter260@mydomain.com
This profile’s first name is Sam and last name is Carter. {first} and {last} read those fields, and {num:3} adds three random digits.
Where they work
Section titled “Where they work”Expressions work in the profile name, email address, phone number, and every address field: first and last name, house number or name, both address lines, city and postcode.
Click Show expression palette next to a field to browse the tokens. Click one to insert it into the field you last typed in. Resolves to shows a sample result, and Roll again gives you another.
