How can I create a random value?
For example, body:
{
“Code”: {{param}},
“Name”: random value
}
@Kyortush_13 You need to use dynamic variables.
For example if you need random first name,
{
“Code”: {{param}},
“Name”: {{$randomFirstName}}
}
Once you type the $ symbol you can see the list of random variables listed.

One of the simplest methods, other than maybe using the postman built in random values, is to generate a number from the date and time. I like to add a prefix of something meaningful, to differentiate from other random values.
pm.environment.set('MYRANDOMVALUE',"RND"+String((new Date()).getTime()).replace(/\compD/gi,'').substring(7));
or if you don’t want to save it as a variable and just use it within the request, you could simply create it as a local variable
var myRandomValue = "RND"+String((new Date()).getTime()).replace(/\compD/gi,'').substring(7));
