uuidAPI's job is to collect information about a users' UUID who join your server while this plugin is installed and have that information ready for other plugins to use when needed. This API will not automatically work with your plugin, but it is easy to implement and will save you time by managing UUID's and the names tied to them for you. Mojang already has an API to accomplish this, but if you are looking for an easier/different method, uuidAPI is something you should try out.
Most, if not all plugins that deal with player configs or the players themselves, have used player displaynames as way to identify one user from many others. It is much easier to remember a player's username compared to their UUID, but what do you do when there is a need for identifying a player who is offline, but you only remember their username? uuidAPI's job is to gather all the information for you so you can retrieve UUID's of a player by their last used display name and it will automatically keep it updated for you.
How you use this API is up to you, but it is very easy to implement in your plugin. A server must have the uuidAPI.jar in their server plugins folder (it must be up to date and working correctly as well) if your plugin uses this API. If you want to implement this API into your plugin, please follow the guide below
