UUIDs are made with your browser’s cryptographically secure random generator. v7 UUIDs start with a timestamp, so they sort by creation time, which makes them better as database keys.

How to use UUID Generator

  1. Choose v4 or v7 and how many you need.
  2. Pick the format options.
  3. Copy or download the list.

Frequently asked questions

v4 or v7: which should I use?

v4 is fully random and widely supported. v7 starts with a timestamp, so new IDs sort in creation order, which keeps database indexes efficient.

Can two UUIDs be the same?

In practice no. A v4 UUID has 122 random bits, making a collision astronomically unlikely.
