encode uuid to be accepted by google

I'm querying google's calendar api and i get back some 400's due to invalid id. i read on their docs what they match and have concluded they don't support cuid (cuid uses letters up to z and google accept a-v), so i changed to uuid but i keep getting back 400 and so i tried removing the separating dashes to make it happy. is there a proper way to do this encoding/decoding? right now i did a pretty nasty hack with regex (to remove when posting google's api) and split (to add them back when querying the api). the id's in my db uses prisma's generated uuid so they have dashes, hence i need the dashes in order to be able to match them. tldr; what's the proper way to encode/decode uuid?
