UUID Generator

UUID Generator

The UUID Generator creates random version-4 UUIDs (also called GUIDs) using the browser's cryptographically secure random source. UUIDs are 128-bit identifiers used as database keys, request IDs and idempotency keys precisely because they can be generated independently without collisions.

Why use UUID Generator

  • Cryptographically random UUID v4 via crypto.randomUUID().
  • Generate in bulk — up to 100 at once.
  • Uppercase and hyphen-free options for different systems.
  • Copy all with one click.

How to use UUID Generator

  1. 1Choose how many. Set the count and any formatting options (uppercase, hyphens).
  2. 2Generate. Click Generate for a fresh batch of random UUIDs.
  3. 3Copy. Copy a single UUID or the whole list.

Frequently asked questions

What kind of UUIDs are these?
Version 4 UUIDs, generated with the browser's cryptographically secure random number generator (crypto.randomUUID).
Are they unique?
UUID v4 has 122 random bits, so collisions are astronomically unlikely — safe as primary keys and identifiers.
Can I generate many at once?
Yes — choose a count and generate up to 100 at a time, then copy them all.

Developer notes

UUID v4 is random, so values are unordered — fine for keys but poor for index locality. If you need time-sortable IDs, consider UUID v7 or ULID instead.
