About the UUID Generator

Generate one or many universally unique identifiers. Version 4 is purely random; version 7 is time-ordered (useful for database primary keys with natural sort). Choose formatting options to match your codebase.

How to use the UUID Generator

Select UUID version (v4 or v7).
Choose how many to generate.
Set formatting: uppercase, braces, no hyphens.

Frequently asked questions

What is the difference between v4 and v7?

v4 is 122 bits of randomness. v7 has a Unix timestamp prefix followed by randomness, giving time-ordered IDs that sort chronologically.

Can UUIDs collide?

The probability of a v4 collision is astronomically low (about 1 in 2^122). For practical purposes, they are unique.

Should I use UUID or ULID?

UUID v7 provides similar benefits to ULID (time-ordered, sortable) within the standard UUID format. Use whichever your ecosystem supports.
