### Settings

The action uses the following settings:

| Setting         | Description                                                     | [Parsed](https://docs.mylinkconnect.com/actions-and-operations/dynamic-parsing) |
| --------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| Split Threshold | The chance of execution, expressed in a percentage from 1 to 99 | :no\_entry:                                                                     |

### Remarks

Each Random Split action will run on a single chance roll for every interaction executed. This means that you're not limited to a simple A/B split but you can mix and match multiple Random Split action to do A-to-N splits or even weighted splits.

This is a simple A/B split setup:

Moving the splits percentages, you can obtain a weighted split:

Adding multiple splits you can achieve multiple path splits, even with weighted routes:

MyLINK Connect will not enforce a 100% total on all splits. You can still have a given, single percent split and let the flow continue:

If the total of all the splits on an interaction amount to more than 100%, the splits that surpass it won't be executed.
