How to use the UUID Generator
Version-4 UUIDs are 128-bit identifiers made from 122 random bits, so collisions are practically impossible. They're generated with your browser's secure random number generator, never on a server.
Frequently asked questions
Is a GUID the same as a UUID?
Yes. GUID is Microsoft's name for the same 128-bit identifier.
Can two UUIDs ever be the same?
In theory, but you'd need to generate billions per second for decades to have a meaningful chance.
