Frequently Asked Questions

What is a UUID?

A Universally Unique Identifier (UUID) is a 128-bit number used to identify information in computer systems. UUIDs are completely unique and highly unlikely to collide.

What is UUID v4?

UUID Version 4 is generated randomly (using cryptographically secure pseudorandom number generators). It is the most common version used in modern web development.

Can a UUID collide?

The probability of a UUIDv4 collision is incredibly small. You would need to generate 1 billion UUIDs per second for 85 years to have a 50% chance of a collision.
