4.5.9.2. Object identifier

The Object identifier settings let you choose to replace the identifiers of all features and geometries to be exported with random UUID values.

Fig. 4.41 Export preferences – Object identifier.

This setting can be useful, for instance, in case you want to hide your internal object identifiers in datasets that you share with third parties or the public.

You can also define a prefix to be used for all UUIDs. The default value is ID_.
