How do I obtain the UUID of Microbit? I managed to connect but am unsure how to get the UUID? Is this just the name of the device or the bluetooth address?

All help is much appreciated.

Hi buddy! 👋

I googled, and found this -

### [https://lancaster-university.github.io/microbit-docs/resources/bluetooth/bluetooth\_profile.html](https://lancaster-university.github.io/microbit-docs/resources/bluetooth/bluetooth_profile.html)

( **`Ctrl+f`** your sensor, and get it’s UUID 😄 )

I think this should help you 🙂

**Thanks! 😊**

Hmm, I have read through some of this and it looks like they have default UUID for model of Microbit? If this is the case then great. But I do not understand Ctrl+f as I am using a Thunkable X made app and the Bluetooth component built into the Microbit.

Ctrl+f is a command for chrome, which does a search in the page for any keyword.

It will look like above ⬆

Enter your Sensor’s name there, & get your UUID (If available 😐 )

### Thanks! 😊

A Microbit is a tiny computer with bluetooth capabilities. It can be programmed with blocks like Thunkable. This does not work. It is only discovered by bluetooth
