What is a UUID v4?

A UUID (Universally Unique Identifier) version 4 is a randomly generated 128-bit identifier that is practically guaranteed to be unique. UUID v4 uses random or pseudo-random numbers and is the most commonly used UUID version.

The standard format is: xxxxxxxx-xxxx-4xxx-yxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx

  • The 13th character is always 4 (indicates version 4)
  • The 17th character is one of 8, 9, a, or b (variant bits)
  • Remaining characters are randomly generated

How to Use the UUID Generator

  2. Click the Generate UUIDs button.
  3. View your generated UUIDs in the results panel.
  4. Click the Copy All button to copy all UUIDs to your clipboard.
  5. Or hover over any individual UUID and click the copy icon to copy just that one.

Privacy & Security

Our UUID generator runs entirely in your browser using the Web Cryptography API'scrypto.getRandomValues()method. No data is sent to any server, ensuring complete privacy. The generated UUIDs are produced using a cryptographically secure random number generator, making them suitable for security-sensitive applications.
