Hi @Cleffa 

Looking at the limited docs, it doesnt look like you can inject a UUID into the filename, however it does access timestamp variables so you could perhaps add a millisecond (%f) to your filename to make it more unique?

Check ou the timestamp docs at https://docs.python.org/3.7/library/datetime.html#strftime-strptime-behavior:~:text=Microsecond%20as....

🌟 Did this answer help you? If so, please consider:

  • Adding karma to show it was useful
  • Marking it as the solution if it resolved your issue
  • Commenting if you need any clarification
