UUID Generator
Generate UUID v4 identifiers in bulk for databases, APIs, and testing. Copy one or many with a click.
When to use UUID v4
A UUID (Universally Unique Identifier) is a 128-bit value often written as 36 characters with hyphens. Version 4 UUIDs are random and are widely used as primary keys, request IDs, and test fixtures when you do not need time-ordered IDs.
Steps
- Set how many UUIDs you need (up to 100).
- Click Generate to create a fresh list.
- Copy all IDs for fixtures, seed data, or API examples.
- Paste them into your database script, test file, or ticket.
Tips
- UUID v4 collision risk is extremely low for normal application volumes.
- If you need sortable IDs, consider ULID or UUID v7 instead of v4.
- Keep IDs opaque in URLs; do not encode private meaning into them.
Frequently asked questions
Which UUID version is generated?
This tool generates UUID version 4 (random) using the browser crypto API when available.
Can I generate multiple UUIDs?
Yes. Choose how many IDs you need and copy them all at once as a newline-separated list.
Is a UUID the same as a GUID?
GUID usually refers to Microsoft’s implementation of the same UUID concept. The string format is compatible for most practical uses.
