About UUID Generator

OptiPix UUID Generator creates universally unique identifiers directly in your browser using cryptographically secure random number generation. Generate single or batch UUIDs (up to 100 at once) in v4 (random), v1 (timestamp-based), v7 (modern Unix timestamp + random), or Nil format. Choose from five display formats: standard with hyphens, without hyphens, uppercase, URN notation, or with braces. Validate any UUID by pasting it — the tool identifies its version and confirms validity. Export batches separated by newlines, commas, or as a JSON array. Copy individual UUIDs or all at once, and download batch results as a .txt file. All generation uses crypto.getRandomValues() for cryptographic randomness. Nothing is sent to any server — your UUIDs are generated entirely on your device.

How It Works

The tool uses the Web Crypto API (crypto.randomUUID() for v4, crypto.getRandomValues() for v1 and v7) to generate cryptographically secure random bytes, then formats them according to the RFC 4122 UUID specification with the correct version and variant bits.

Use Cases

  • Generate unique identifiers for database records
  • Create UUIDs for API request tracing and correlation
  • Generate GUIDs for software configuration files
  • Batch generate UUIDs for data migration scripts
  • Validate UUIDs received from external systems

Frequently Asked Questions

What UUID versions are supported?
Version 4 (random, most common), Version 1 (timestamp-based), Version 7 (modern Unix timestamp + random, recommended for databases), and Nil UUID (all zeros).
Are the UUIDs cryptographically random?
Yes. UUIDs are generated using crypto.getRandomValues() or crypto.randomUUID(), both of which use your browser's cryptographic random number generator.
Can I generate multiple UUIDs at once?
Yes. Use the batch slider to generate 1 to 100 UUIDs at once. Export them separated by newlines, commas, or as a JSON array.
Can I validate a UUID?
Yes. Paste any UUID into the validator section and the tool will confirm whether it's valid and identify its version.
What is the difference between v4 and v7?
UUID v4 is entirely random. UUID v7 encodes a Unix timestamp in the first 48 bits followed by random data, making it sortable by creation time — ideal for database primary keys.
