JSON: In Control Copy task, if we use JSON type and copy value from Source datapath to Destination datapath then this will refer the call by reference method. In this any changes made in Destination datapath will also reflect in Source datapath.

CLONE: In Control Copy task, if we use Clone type and copy value from Source datapath to Destination datapath then this will refer the call by value method. In this any changes made in Destination datapath will not reflect in Source datapath.

In RANDOM type, a 6 digit random number is copied in the Copy To Path. The Copy From Path will be empty in this case.

@ShraddhaDhoke, Can I copy the value from another source like copy from another textfield?. Is this possible?

@Shubhamkumar1 Yes, data can be copied “From” any datapath “To” any datapath by selecting Json or Clone Type. This will work with Text field as well.
