INTRODUCTION
Edit UUID is a simple module that allows us to update, change or add custom UUID for an entity. Bundles and entity types are configurable to enable UUID field in entity form so that user can change or provide own UUID for configured entity types and bundles only, this feature can be restricted to admin users by enabling role-specific permission (show edit uuid).
-
Some Roles can only see the UUID in entity form and Some Roles can update the UUID in entity form. (using edit UUID & show edit UUID permissions)
-
Some bundles can be configured to have option only to see the UUID in entity form, Some bundles can have the option to update the UUID in the entity form.
