UUID Generator

Generate secure UUID v4 or time-ordered UUID v7 values.

About UUID Generator

Create one or many cryptographically secure identifiers with casing and hyphen formatting controls.

The generator uses cryptographically secure browser randomness for UUID v4 and combines a millisecond timestamp with random bits for UUID v7. You can create batches and adjust casing or hyphen display.

How to use it

  1. Enter or select your source data.
  2. Adjust the available options and run the tool.
  3. Review, copy, or download the result.

Common use cases

  • Create identifiers for fixtures, migrations, or local prototypes.
  • Generate time-sortable UUID v7 values for database experiments.
  • Produce batches of GUID-compatible strings for test imports.

Worked example

Generate 50 lowercase UUID v7 values without hyphens.

Limitations and responsible use

  • Generated identifiers are not registered in or checked against your database.
  • UUID v7 exposes approximate creation time by design.
  • Removing hyphens or changing case affects presentation, not the underlying 128-bit value.

Frequently asked questions

Which version should I choose?

Use v4 for purely random identifiers and v7 when chronological database ordering is useful.

Can two generated UUIDs collide?

A collision is theoretically possible but extraordinarily unlikely with correctly generated UUIDs.
