What Is UUID Generator?
Generate random UUIDs (v4) for use as unique identifiers.
UUID (Universally Unique Identifier) is a 128-bit identifier standardized by RFC 4122. Version 4 UUIDs are randomly generated and have a collision probability so low it is statistically negligible (1 in 5.3×10³¶ per generated pair). UUIDs are used as primary keys in databases, session tokens, transaction IDs, and anywhere a unique identifier is needed without a central registry.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between UUID v1 and UUID v4?
UUID v1 is generated from the current timestamp and MAC address — it is time-based and can expose when and where it was created. UUID v4 is randomly generated with no traceable information. Use v4 for general-purpose identifiers and v1 only when time-ordering is specifically required.
