About this tool

This tool generates random UUIDs (universally unique identifiers). It creates version 4 (v4) UUIDs using the browser's crypto.randomUUID(), filling the randomly-determined bits of the 128-bit value with cryptographically secure randomness. You can generate 1 to 50 at a time.

How to use

  1. Pick how many to generate (1 / 5 / 10 / 50).
  2. Use the checkboxes to include hyphens and to show uppercase letters.
  3. Click regenerate to create a new set of the same count.
  4. Use the copy-all button for the whole list, or each line's copy button for a single value.

Frequently asked questions

Is this v4, or some other UUID version?
It's v4. It uses no timestamp or MAC address information โ€” only randomness โ€” so nothing about when or on what device it was created can be inferred from the value itself.
Can two UUIDs collide?
The probability is not zero in theory, but it is negligible in practice. A v4 UUID has 122 random bits, so the chance of ever seeing the same value twice is effectively negligible.
Can I drop the hyphens or switch to uppercase?
Yes. The checkboxes let you freely combine the 550e8400-e29b-... hyphenated form, a hyphen-free form, and upper/lowercase.
Are the generated values sent to a server?
No. They are generated entirely in your browser with crypto.randomUUID() and never sent to a server.
