Make UniqueID

If you need a Datatable that has entries with a unique_id string, you can compare against the existing entries and spit out a value that isn't used yet. In the example, the datatable is called 'ContentData'.


In the example, the string is sent to the log so it can be copied from the Output Log window, but you could do more with it. In my case I'd feed it straight into the next entry in the Datatable. It's generated by pressing Run Editor Utility Blueprint in the Content Browser in the editor.

The format is 8characters-4characters-4characters-4characters-12characters.

Here is the paste-bin for the Blueprint, which is one event graph.
