Limit of UUID digits

[Ken.T]

Hi

I'd like to know about limit of UUID digits.

I sometimes find below response.

"detail:2ace3214-4741-4432-8ab7-2068edc2bec54 does not conform to expected UUID pattern"

Is there any rules of UUID?

What was the API call you made to get this?

can you share the URL please?

[aradford]

Looks like you added an extra digit somehow?  did you cut and paste this?

the '4' is an extra digit.

>>> uuid_obj=UUID('2ace3214-4741-4432-8ab7-2068edc2bec54')

Traceback (most recent call last):

  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>

  File "/opt/local/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/lib/python2.7/uuid.py", line 136, in __init__

    raise ValueError('badly formed hexadecimal UUID string')
