Hi Bob, You could use an md5 hash (xdmp:md5) using some seed that will differ every time you make a URI. (E.g. use dateTime, but not in the same transaction or you will get the same seed and, therefore, same md5 hash for everything.) The md5 hash is not guaranteed unique, so it might be worth keeping a list of formerly created URIs and checking there is no collision when making a new URI.
