I got this weird issue, can’t figure out how to solve it.
My table has these columns (in this order):

  • ID (uniqueidentifier)
  • UserID (uniqueidentifier)
  • JobID (uniqueidentifier)
  • Archive (bit)

I get this error-message:

Msg 8169, Level 16, State 2, Line 1
Conversion failed when converting from a character string to uniqueidentifier.

INSERT INTO AcceptedJobs VALUES 
(NEWID(),
CONVERT(uniqueidentifier,'32c5a126-a063-4d5c-98f5-0b8f9b18dc04'),
CONVERT(uniqueidentifier,'5d454187-b45d40b4-b90b-06a8662de634'),
0)

    Your second string can’t be converted to UNIQUEIDENTIFIER datatype. I’m guessing that you are missing a -:

    INSERT INTO AcceptedJobs VALUES 
(NEWID(),
CONVERT(uniqueidentifier,'32c5a126-a063-4d5c-98f5-0b8f9b18dc04'),
CONVERT(uniqueidentifier,'5d454187-b45d-40b4-b90b-06a8662de634'),
0)

    I tested this and it works, though I’m not sure if its the same UID that you need.
