Hi @lakkshme_rangarajan

I would recommend you confirm the content within the desktop by hitting F1 or selecting the "Get Help & Support" option from the help menu.

I also tried accessing GEN_VAL4 using the WebSocket API and can confirm the value is blank (null). I would normally trust the values accessed via the API but there may be a business/content reason why they are displaying zero (0) - a content specialist should be able to confirm.
