What is the Free UUID Generator?
The free UUID Generator produces one or more version 4 (random) UUIDs instantly. Choose how many to generate using the count field (up to 100 at once), then pick an output format: Standard (lowercase with hyphens), Uppercase, Upper, no dashes, Braces ({uuid}), or URN. Each UUID can be copied individually or all at once.
