ID musicbrainz_id
DatatypeNot PIIidentifierDraft
This record is a draft: it has not been reviewed yet and may be incomplete or wrong. Do not rely on it for compliance decisions. Help improve it (see CONTRIBUTING.md).
Permanent identifier of an entity in MusicBrainz, the open music encyclopedia: an artist, release group, release, recording, work, label, area, place, URL or track. It is a UUID in lower case with hyphens. The value does not tell the kind of entity, so the field name matters; the records musicbrainz_artist_id, musicbrainz_release_group_id and others name one kind.
