UUID v4 Generator

Generate random RFC 4122 version 4 UUIDs in bulk.

To generate UUIDs, set how many you need and they are produced instantly using crypto.randomUUID, the browser's built-in RFC 4122 version 4 generator. Version 4 UUIDs are 122 bits of randomness, so collisions are effectively impossible in practice.

Frequently asked questions

Can two UUIDs ever collide?

In theory yes, in practice no. A v4 UUID has 122 random bits; you would need to generate about 2.7 × 10^18 of them before a 50% chance of any collision.

What is the difference between UUID and GUID?

They are the same 128-bit format. GUID is Microsoft's name for it. The only practical difference is that Microsoft tooling often displays them in braces and uppercase.
