UUID Generator

Generated UUIDs

Cryptographically Secure

Uses the browser's native crypto.randomUUID() when available, with an RFC 4122 fallback.

Bulk Generation

Generate up to 100 UUIDs at once for seeding databases or test data.

Format Options

Toggle hyphens and letter case to match your target system's requirements.

Copy Individually or All

Copy a single UUID or the entire batch to your clipboard in one click.

What Is a UUID and When Do You Need One?

UUIDs (Universally Unique Identifiers) are 128-bit values used as unique IDs for database rows, distributed system entities, session tokens, and more — without needing a central authority to avoid collisions. Version 4 UUIDs are generated using random numbers, making them ideal for most general-purpose use cases.

How Generation Works

This tool uses crypto.randomUUID(), a built-in browser API backed by a cryptographically secure random number generator. If your browser doesn't support it, a manual RFC 4122-compliant version 4 fallback using crypto.getRandomValues() is used instead — no external libraries required.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are these UUIDs generated on a server?

No. UUIDs are generated entirely in your browser using the Web Crypto API (crypto.randomUUID), or a cryptographically-seeded fallback. Nothing is sent to any server.

What is a UUID v4?

A UUID (Universally Unique Identifier) version 4 is a 128-bit identifier generated using random or pseudo-random numbers. It's practically guaranteed to be unique across systems without central coordination.

How many UUIDs can I generate at once?

You can generate between 1 and 100 UUIDs in a single batch using the quantity selector.

Can I remove the hyphens or change the case?

Yes. Use the format options to toggle hyphens on or off, and switch between uppercase and lowercase output.

Is it safe to use these UUIDs in production?

Yes. When available, generation uses crypto.randomUUID(), the same cryptographically secure API browsers use internally. A manual RFC 4122-compliant fallback is used only if that API is unavailable.
