How to generate a ServerId GUID for testing purposes?
Context: I'm trying to test some systems which will depend on ServerIds from server v2.0. I'd like to generate some 'fake' ServerIds so I can test it locally first.
How do I generate GUIDs that look like this?
0595d58b096937ab3b3480f520a3468e39099daa7e646e294e79eab497c42a38
(64 length)
Currently my approach looks something like:
string fakeGuid = Guid.NewGuid().ToString();
which outputs:
51d783be-d5b0-43b6-873c-9f1b778cad00
which is not nearly long enough to match the ServerId format

ServerId like 0595d58b096937ab3b3480f520a3468e39099daa7e646e294e79eab497c42a38 is not a GUID, it’s a random string. You can write a random string generator function by yourself to generate a string like it.
