How to use Placeholders and Loops

You can write Placeholders like: <<gd.address.zipCode>> And Loops:

<<gd.loop|[count]>> <</gd.loop>> or <<gd.loop|[count]|[separator]>> <</gd.loop>>
<<gd.loop|100>> <</gd.loop>> or <<gd.loop|100|,>> <</gd.loop>>

1. open command menu (F1)
2. select "Generate Data - Replace Placeholders" to replace all placeholders

Before:

<<gd.loop|3|,>>
    {
        "name": "<<gd.name.findName>>",
        "id": "<<gd.random.uuid>>"
    }
<</gd.loop>>

After:

    {
        "name": "Ellen Ackermann",
        "id": "7c1873ad-ed72-4c25-8dbf-84acb9a58a64"
    },
    {
        "name": "Hr. Shawn Agostini",
        "id": "94bd97f0-7043-42b0-8b97-f5de6d04bcc0"
    },
    {
        "name": "Fr. Ivonne Kobs",
        "id": "c32eeb53-e796-4ea7-8c98-e3dfaf0c4088"
    }
