About UUIDs

What is a UUID?

A UUID (Universally Unique Identifier) is a 128-bit number used to uniquely identify information. UUIDs are standardized by RFC 4122 and are designed to be unique across space and time.

Features

  • Generate UUID v1 (timestamp-based) and v4 (random)
  • Multiple output formats (standard, uppercase, no hyphens, braces, URN)
  • Bulk generation up to 1000 UUIDs
  • Copy individual or all UUIDs
  • Download as text file

Generate cryptographically random UUID v4 identifiers instantly. UUIDs (Universally Unique Identifiers) are 128-bit values used as unique IDs in databases, APIs, distributed systems, and software development. Generate single or bulk UUIDs with one click.

Key Features

  • Generate UUID v4 (random)
  • Bulk generation (multiple UUIDs at once)
  • Uppercase and lowercase formatting
  • With or without hyphens
  • Cryptographically secure random generation

What format is used?
Standard UUID format: 8-4-4-4-12 hexadecimal characters (e.g., 550e8400-e29b-41d4-a716-446655440000).
