uuidv4 Function
uuidv4
generates a unique identifier string.
The id is a generated and formatted as required by RFC 4122 section 4.4, producing a Version 4 UUID. The result is a UUID generated only from pseudo-random numbers.
This function produces a new value each time it is called, and so using it
directly in job arguments will result in spurious diffs. We do not
recommend using the uuidv4
function in resource configurations.
