# Random data integration
Integrating Random Data allows you to explore the platform’s features using fictitious data. This option is ideal for testing and familiarising yourself with the platform before connecting real data.
## Step 1: Connect Random Data
1. In the platform interface, locate the ‘Connect Random Data’ button.
2. Click on the button to initiate the integration.
## Step 2: Access the Platform with Fictitious Data
**Once the integration is complete:**
* Your account will be linked to a dataset of fake data.
* This data simulates product catalogues, user interactions, and analytics, allowing you to try out all platform functions.
* Navigate through the platform as if you were managing real campaigns to understand its features and workflows.
## Notes on Using Random Data
### Purpose:
This integration is purely for testing purposes and does not reflect real-world performance or actual campaign results.
### Transitioning to Real Data:
When you are ready to connect your actual data (e.g., via Shopify, Prestashop, or custom integrations), you can replace the random data integration with your real feed.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:
```
GET https://docs.abtasty.com/recommendations-and-merchandising_deprecated/recos-and-merch-integrations/analytic-integrations/random-data-integration.md?ask=&goal=
```
`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.
The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.
Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
