Guide

How to use

  1. Choose random UUIDv4 or time-based UUIDv7, then select a batch size up to 100.
  2. Generate the identifiers and adjust casing, hyphens, braces, or the output layout without replacing the current batch.
  3. Copy or download the batch as lines, comma-separated text, JSON, or a SQL-ready quoted list.
  4. Paste any UUID into the inspector to check its canonical form, version, variant, and available UUIDv7 timestamp.

Frequently asked questions

What is the difference between UUIDv4 and UUIDv7?

UUIDv4 is random. UUIDv7 begins with a millisecond Unix timestamp, so values generally sort by creation time while retaining random data for uniqueness.

Does changing the output format create new UUIDs?

No. Casing, hyphens, braces, and output-layout changes reformat the current batch. Only the Generate UUIDs button creates new values.

How many can I generate?

You can generate between 1 and 100 UUIDs at a time and export the complete batch.

Does a UUIDv7 reveal when it was created?

Yes. UUIDv7 contains a millisecond timestamp that the inspector can display. Choose UUIDv4 when exposing approximate creation time is undesirable.

What does the UUID inspector validate?

It checks the hexadecimal structure and accepted compact, canonical, or braced form, then reports the encoded version and variant. It cannot determine whether another system has already used the value.
