Each [[Label]] in [[MusicBrainz]] has a unique '''Label ID''', which is an absolute [http://ietf.org/rfc/rfc3986.txt URI]. It has the form <code><nowiki>http://musicbrainz.org/label/UUID</nowiki></code>, where <code><nowiki>UUID</nowiki></code> is a [[Wikipedia:UUID|Universally Unique Identifier]] in its 36 character ASCII representation.

Description

Each Label in MusicBrainz has a unique Label ID, which is an absolute URI. It has the form http://musicbrainz.org/label/UUID, where UUID is a Universally Unique Identifier in its 36 character ASCII representation. In situations where the context is clear (such as file tags), just the UUID part can be used, leaving a relative URI.

MusicBrainz also has UUIDs for artists and releases.
