Identifier

Before June 6, 2024, One Record used UUID Version 4.

However, to enhance performance and reliability, a transition to UUID V7 has been implemented. All shipments and data generated with UUID V4 have been archived, and from now on, only UUID V7 identifiers will be provided. This change improves the efficiency of services, particularly in terms of database operations and data integrity.

New UUID Formats

The API now utilizes UUID Version 7, which is a new way of creating unique identifiers. Unlike the old method (Version 4), which was entirely random, Version 7 includes a timestamp, making the identifiers ordered by time. This helps in organizing data and making searches faster.
