Title: Return UNIQID field instead of SID » Expose UNIQID to Views
Priority: Critical » Minor

What use do you have for the uniqid? It is a complete nonsense value just used as a placeholder and is used no where else in Drupal.

Here's a couple of examples of both fields.

sid, uniqid

101, 56b8d6fc0f51d6.30453222
279, 5745e073235a31.68793623

Changed title to best guess of requester's intent.

Hi !
this random string is exactly what I need to view, I am working on a project that needs random strings generated per each post, I could change the code to get the desired form of string but I can't get to expose it in views
Thank you !

Sounds like you're using the wrong module, you could probably try Universally Unique IDentifier instead.

than you for your advice but UUID module can't serve my purposes and it has no field for the content type
