Frequently asked questions

How do I generate a GUID online?

Choose UUID v4 or UUID v7, select the output format and count, then generate and copy the result.

Is a GUID the same as a UUID?

GUID and UUID usually refer to the same 128-bit identifier format. UUID is the standards term, while GUID is common in Microsoft tools.

Should I generate UUID v4 or UUID v7?

Use UUID v4 for random identifiers. Use UUID v7 when creation order matters, such as for database records or event IDs.

When should GUIDs use braces?

Use braces when a Microsoft-style workflow expects them. Most APIs and databases accept the standard hyphenated form without braces.
