Hi, I am a student from team 2704 and I was researching for scouting programs because our current scouting method is horrible. I came across the SWISS scouting systemSWISS and when I tried to register, I saw you need a team uuid, where would I find that? Thanks in advance!
Not the developer of SWISS and have never heard of it until now, so my advice is very unofficial. However, the application is probably asking for a UUID so each using team will have a unique identifier for their database rows. UUIDs have so many bits of information that they are almost guaranteed to be unique when generated by any method.
Chances are good that you just have to generate a random UUID and enter it. It would be good to record it in case there is a need for it in the future.

Haha! Looks like I should start paying attention to Chief Delphi now.
We used the first few characters of a UUID for each team in the database (see explanation of UUID) That is leftover from our internal use and it is beyond unpolished. Right now working on updating SWISS to use organizations instead of teams. Should be done by the new year. Anyone can then register an organization and begin scouting.
Will have a full post here when it’s ready to go and then again when SWISS is ready for 2023.
Let me know if you want any more info!
