body:
In some situations it can be very useful to generate a unique ID in templates.
This is particularly useful when creating templates for the [Flow
:ref](../../../../content/flow/) system and you need unique IDs for the DOM.
## Example
```html+jinja
{% set id = get_random_id() %}
<div id="{{ id }}">
<button data-target="{{ id }}" class="toggle">Hide This</button>
</div>
```
