How to generate random numbers in a range of a phone number format Postman [closed]

Question

I want to generate random numbers in a specific range of numbers. I tried solutions provided in this stackoverflow link but none of the solutions are working. I am able to generate only 1 random number instead of a specific range of numbers. Is there any other solutions I can use to generate a random number for a specific range?

I'm looking for a range of 10 numbers with random numbers. I am looking for a phone number format. For example: (651) 651-6516

You use do this in two different ways - You could write some JS code to create random numbers and format it in the way you need or use a 3rd party data generator to do this for you.

By adding this code to the Pre-Request Script you can get the phone data from the randomuser.me API and store this in an environment variable to use in the main request.

pm.sendRequest("https://randomuser.me/api/?nat=us&inc=phone", (err, res) => {
    pm.environment.set('phoneNumber', res.json().results[0].phone)
}) 

To use this in the main request, you can use the {{phoneNumber}} syntax to add this to the URL or the request body.
