Guests have a UUID, it's part of the XML description, e.g.,

    $ virsh dumpxml myguest | head -3
    <domain type='kvm' id='10'>
      <name>myguest</name>
        <uuid>b392ddf3-ed7a-4a4d-ba22-159d87bd601d</uuid>

You can get this using the virDomainGetUUID() api call.

Hosts have a UUID that is visible via the 'capabilities' information:

    $ virsh capabilities | head -4
    <capabilities>

      <host>
          <uuid>65bf8701-5216-11cb-baa9-9ee038331cdf</uuid>

This information is available via the virConnectGetCapabilities() api call.
