What is UUID Generator?

UUID v4 Generator creates random RFC 4122 UUIDs (also called GUIDs) for unique identification across systems. UUID v4 uses random values, making collisions extremely unlikely and avoiding database coordination. Use UUIDs for database primary keys, public IDs in URLs, request/correlation IDs for logs, event identifiers, and test fixtures. This tool generates valid UUID v4 strings quickly and supports batch generation for seeding and automation.

How to Use

1

Click "Generate UUIDs" to create one or more UUID v4 values

2

Copy the UUID output

3

Use UUIDs in databases, APIs, or message/event systems

4

Generate multiple values for fixtures, seeds, or bulk inserts

5

Use as request IDs for tracing and log correlation

Common Use Cases

Generate primary keys for distributed systems without a central counter

Create public-facing IDs that are hard to guess

Add request/correlation IDs for debugging and observability

Generate identifiers for events, jobs, and background tasks

Seed test data with unique values for integration tests
