Generate GUID (Globally Unique Identifier) for Development or Testing

GUID stands for "Globally Unique Identifier" and is represented as a 32-character hexadecimal string. A GUID is used to uniquely identify information in computer systems. It is also commonly referred to as a UUID (Universally Unique Identifier), and its primary purpose is to ensure uniqueness across distributed systems or large-scale environments where any number of entities can be uniquely be identified.

Each part of GIUD represents different sections, like:
  • The first 8 hex digits represent the time stamp or a time-based component.
  • Next 4 hex digits contain more information related to the generation time or other system factors.
  • Following 4 hex digits are version-specific, identifying the GUID version.
  • The next 4 hex digits include additional randomness or system-specific values.
  • The fifth and final 12 hex digits ensure the final portion has sufficient randomness to make the GUID globally unique.

Below you can generate GUID for your use in your software applications or for your testing. You can repeat generating upto max 100 ids.
