Обсуждение: Regarding UUID
Hi,
I am having a table with a column type UUID and to insert this column value i am having value like "1344443456" in text datatype and i want to insert this value as UUID .
While trying to insert this value getting error for UUID ,
So is any way to convert my given value into customised UUID?
Let me know if any way to do so.
Regards
Lekha

That does not look like a valid UUID at all. I have no idea how that could be converted to an UUID, same as I don't know how "hello" should be converted to a timestamp. Perhaps you have some more information? Yours, Laurenz Albe
You'd need to convert your string to a valid UUID first.
See https://stackoverflow.com/questions/29059530/is-there-any-way-to-generate-the-same-uuid-from-a-string for ideas
What do you mean by "customised UUID"? UUID format is standardized by definition.
But that looks like a X-Y problem. If you already have an ID, why generate a new one?
