Which UUID version is generated?

Version 4, with the standard random UUID version and variant bits.

Are UUIDs generated on the server?

No. Select Generate in the browser; the initial server-rendered field is empty.

How large can a batch be?

Choose an integer from 1 to 500. Invalid counts show an error instead of being silently changed.

Does a generated UUID grant access to a resource?

No. Treat it as an identifier, not a credential, and validate permissions independently.

What is UUID Generator?

Generate version 4 UUID strings using cryptographically secure randomness.

How it works

Select Generate new UUID to create a random version-4 identifier with browser Web Crypto. The batch panel creates 1-500 identifiers locally. Generation is user-initiated rather than performed while rendering the server response.

Common uses

Generate a single UUID for a new record or identifier.
Generate a batch of UUIDs for seeding test data.
Copy a list of UUIDs directly into a script or spreadsheet.

Limitations

Random UUIDs make collisions extremely unlikely but do not guarantee uniqueness; enforce database uniqueness where required.
UUID v4 is not an authorization token, password, or proof of ownership. The tool does not check identifiers against any database.
