UUID v4

What is a UUID?

UUID means Universally Unique Identifier. It uses a 128-bit identifier format and is commonly used for IDs that can be generated independently without relying on a central sequential counter.

Example: 550e8400-e29b-41d4-a716-446655440000

UUIDs are commonly used for database or entity identifiers, API resources, events or messages, files or objects, and distributed systems.

Why UUID v4?

UUID v4 identifiers are random-based and useful when independently generated opaque identifiers are desired. When generated correctly, the probability of a collision is extremely small, but collisions are not impossible.

Bompit generates UUIDs locally in your browser and does not send generated UUIDs to Bompit.
