UUID v4 structure

Result
xxxxxxxx-xxxx-4xxx-[89ab]xxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx · 3 lines

x denotes random positions; actual values differ each time.

Processing rules and reading the result

crypto.getRandomValues produces 128-bit data; version-4 and RFC-variant bits are set. Uppercase display does not change the identifier’s structure.

Limits and checks before use

Generate 1–100 at a time. Collision probability is not mathematically zero; database uniqueness constraints remain necessary. UUIDs do not replace passwords or access controls.

Common questions

Does this include a timestamp or device address?

This v4 generator uses randomness, without timestamps or MAC addresses. It does not generate v1 or v7.
