Can you clarify what you mean? You can randomly select a user to use for logging in and pass the credentials to a variable to use at the relevant points and you can also use code to use a different user to log in to each location. You need to use a JavaScript event to do this. You can find more information here

Yes, We are trying to pass different users with the same transaction.

Q: you can also use code to use a different user to log in to each location? Is this possible?

Cool, yes, you can use api.getContext() to use a different login for each location. You would want something like this:

//Default Value var userid_by_loc = "ValueDoesNotExist"; try { var loc = api.getContext().location.name; api.info("Location Name is: " + loc); var platform = api.getContext().location.cloudPlatform; api.info("Cloud Platform is: " + platform); //set parameter(s) if ((loc.indexOf("Los Angeles") >= 0) && (platform.includes("Google Cloud") >= 0)) { userid_by_loc = 'LA_User'; } else if ((loc.indexOf("Oregon") >= 0) && (platform.includes("Google Cloud") >= 0)) { userid_by_loc = 'Oregon_User'; } else if ((loc.indexOf("Chicago") >= 0) && (platform.includes("Azure") >= 0)) { userid_by_loc = 'Chicago_User'; } } catch (err) { api.info("Error message: " + err.description); } api.setValue("UserID", userid_by_loc);

You could use Credentials Vault values if you prefer.
