UUID Generator
Generate random unique identifiers in UUID v4 format, customize case, hyphen usage, and output format, then copy or download the result as a TXT file.
UUID Generation Settings
Choose the number of UUIDs, letter case, hyphen option, and output format to create a UUID list.
You can generate between 1 and 100 UUIDs at once.
Choose the letter case format for the UUID string.
With hyphens, UUIDs are 36 characters. Without hyphens, they are 32 characters.
Choose the output format that fits where you plan to paste the result.

Help
When should I use UUIDs?
UUIDs can be used as low-collision unique identifiers for database primary keys, filenames, API request IDs, temporary data identifiers, and test data generation.
UUID v4 Format
A typical UUID v4 follows the xxxxxxxx-xxxx-4xxx-yxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx format and is generated from random values. It is 36 characters with hyphens and 32 characters without hyphens.
When should I remove hyphens?
The no-hyphen format can be useful for URL parameters, filenames, or short token-like strings where separators are unnecessary. Use the hyphenated format when a standard UUID display format is required.
Can UUIDs be used as security tokens?
UUIDs are useful as identifiers, but for login session keys, long-term authentication tokens, or other security-sensitive values, it is better to use cryptographically secure random generation on the server side.
