UUID Generator

Generate unique identifiers (UUID v4)

About UUID Generator

Universally Unique Identifiers (UUIDs) are 128-bit values used as unique identifiers in databases, distributed systems, APIs, and software applications. They ensure that every generated ID is unique across space and time without requiring a central authority.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a UUID v4 used for? +
Generating unique identifiers without coordination: database primary keys, session tokens, correlation IDs in distributed systems, file names, and anything else that needs a virtually zero-collision unique ID.
Is a UUID really unique? +
Practically yes. A v4 UUID has 122 random bits, giving 5.3×10^36 possible values. Collisions are so improbable that the UUID spec considers them impossible for any realistic workload.
Is v4 cryptographically secure? +
The tool uses window.crypto.getRandomValues, so yes. For security tokens the UUID is acceptable, though dedicated token formats (like JWTs) carry more context.
Are my UUIDs saved anywhere? +
No. They are generated in your browser and never logged. Generate as many as you need without leaving a trace.
Should I use dashes or not in databases? +
With dashes is the textual representation. Many databases (MySQL, PostgreSQL) have a native UUID type that stores 16 bytes regardless of display format. Choose what fits your schema.
