UUID v4 toolkit

Generate secure UUID v4 values or inspect UUID shape, version and variant locally.

Your input

Outputs are cleared when the input changes.

Result

Enter your data or use the example, then run the tool.

Worked example

550e8400-e29b-41d4-a716-446655440000 has version 4 and RFC variant bits.

Generated UUIDs follow xxxxxxxx-xxxx-4xxx-[89ab]xxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx. A wrong-length input is invalid.

Method

Prefer crypto.randomUUID; otherwise use secure random bytes with the version and variant bits explicitly set.

Inspection checks the 8-4-4-4-12 hexadecimal groups and v4/RFC bit patterns.

Limits

Generate 1–1,000 UUID v4 values with secure browser randomness. Other UUID versions are not generated.

No uniqueness registry lookup, authorization-token guarantee or automatic copying/storage. Switching language clears generated results.
