Example 1: Check for the Number 4 in a Random Generated Number String

For this example. two Generators have been linked to show the random generated number string and the MatchStringGen Generator output. 

The RandomStringGen Generator generates the random number string and will be referenced by the string Parameter of the MatchStringGen Generator.

Sample Output

gen1 = Random Generated String

gen2 = Result Based on Generated String

For this example, each string containing a "4" will show true:
