Generating a Random Number
Function
This API is used to generate an 8-bit to 8,192-bit random number.
Calling Method
For details, see Calling APIs.
Authorization Information
Each account has all the permissions required to call all APIs, but IAM users must be assigned the required permissions.
- If you are using role/policy-based authorization, see Permissions Policies and Supported Actions for details on the required permissions.
- If you are using identity policy-based authorization, the following identity policy-based permissions are required.

| Parameter | Mandatory | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| project_id | Yes | String | Definition Project ID. For details, see Obtaining a Project ID. Constraints N/A Range The value returned by the IAM API is used, which contains 32 characters. Default Value N/A |
Request Parameters
| Parameter | Mandatory | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| X-Auth-Token | Yes | String | Definition User token. It can be obtained by calling the IAM API. The value of X-Subject-Token in the response header is the user token. Constraints N/A Range Obtain the value by calling the IAM API for obtaining the user token. Default Value N/A |
| Parameter | Mandatory | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| random_data_length | Yes | String | Definition Bit length of a random number Constraints The value must be a multiple of 8. Range 8 to 8192 Default Value N/A |
| sequence | No | String | Definition A 36-byte serial number of a request message, for example, 919c82d4-8046-4722-9094-35c3c6524cff. Constraints N/A Range N/A Default Value N/A |
Response Parameters
Status code: 200
| Parameter | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| random_data | String | Definition Random number in hexadecimal format. The length is the value of random_data_length. Range N/A |
