UUID Generator API (GUID) Plugin

Hey all, I created this plugin for a few of my app’s specific use cases*, and I thought it might be useful in many ways for the community.

This plugin lets your app generate Version 4 and Version 1 UUIDs and GUIDs from UUIDGenerator.net via an https API. A Version 4 UUID is a universally unique identifier that is generated using random numbers. A Version 1 UUID is a universally unique identifier that is generated using a timestamp and the MAC address of the computer on which it was generated.

Please let me know if you have any comments or run into any issues. Thanks.

*Bubble doesn’t currently let Repeating Groups sort by User or Bubble-generated GUIDs, so I added these UUIDs to my app for this purpose.

This is awesome @collegefund.me thanks for this. So through this Generator can we ensure that every UUID will be unique?

Hey @collegefund.me ,

Started using your plugin but I’m getting a lot of “(1062, u"Duplicate entry ‘MY-UUID-GOES-HERE’ for key ‘PRIMARY’”): IntegrityError".

I’m calling the api multiple times within a second (between 10-30 times)… would that give me repeated UUIDs?

Tks

Hello. I tried your plugin API but I get Workflow error - Could not connect to the remote server error in the logs.
