Creating Custom GUID Patterns for Different Objects?

Hello Community,

 

I have a few questions about GUIDs:

 

Q1. Is it possible to create custom GUID series for different standard objects? 
 

For example, can I generate custom GUIDs where every customer record starts with `0000001`, contacts with `0000002`, and orders with `0000003`?
  - Example:
    1. Customers: `0000001-3cfa-4daf-a93c-632cb2420805`
    2. Contacts: `0000002-4akk-5fhg-d19c-42080asb2420`
    3. Orders: `0000003-4akk-5fhg-d19c-42080asb2420`

 

Q2. Can I identify the Object Name just by looking at the GUID of a record?

 

Regards, 

Ajay

Greetings!
 

Unfortunately, we do not recommend creating custom GUIDs, as this may lead to issues with the application.


You can copy the GUID, paste it into the search field in 
Configuration, and select "filter by contains GUID" for further filtering.
