About this tool
Version 4 UUIDs contain 122 random bits; the chance of two ever colliding is negligible. Version 7 (standardised in RFC 9562) starts with a millisecond timestamp, so new IDs sort after older ones. That keeps database indexes compact and is the better choice for primary keys in most new systems. Microsoft calls UUIDs GUIDs; the format is the same.
Good to know
- Up to 1,000 per batch.
- v7 UUIDs reveal roughly when they were created.
