When I import a database into my local postgres instance, following the instructions at https://docs.mendix.com/developerportal/operate/restore-backup-locally/, the ID columns for each Entity are defined in postgres as int(8) and display as a 17 or 18-digit number. I thought that Entity IDs in Mendix are GUIDs, is that correct? If so, why are the ID columns not defined as the postgres UUID data type? Is it possible to convert the postgres ID columns to a traditional 128-bit GUID and/or string? Or is there data loss going on here?
