# Random Bucket - Segment Node

> Randomly assign a percentage of users to a segment.

The Random Bucket segment node assigns a random percentage of users to a segment. This operation is performed by taking a hash of the user's Id.

Segments of this type are useful for testing new branches of a journey e.g. test the impact of a new email template on a small percentage of users.
