GUID

Storage Type Grooper.Core

Represents a globally unique identifier (GUID) for use in Data Fields and related objects.

Remarks

The GUID class enables robust capture, validation, and formatting of globally unique identifiers (GUIDs) in Grooper.

Overview

  • Used to store and process GUID values in Data Fields and extraction objects.
  • GUIDs are 128-bit values used for unique identification in databases, documents, and integrations.
  • Supports parsing, validation, and output formatting using the 'Format Specifier' property.

Usage

  • Assign this storage type to a Data Field to capture unique identifiers, such as database keys, document IDs, or integration tokens.
  • Input values are validated to ensure they are valid GUIDs.
  • Use the 'Format Specifier' property to control how GUIDs are displayed or exported, matching the requirements of external systems or user interfaces.
  • All parsing and formatting operations are case-insensitive and culture-invariant.

> [!TIP] > Use this class whenever you need to guarantee uniqueness across systems, or when integrating with platforms that require GUID/UUID values.

For more information, see the documentation for Storage Types and Data Fields.
