I'm using the following to have a CREATED field in the PROPERTIES field
of a TODO:
;; advice org-insert-todo-heading to insert a created timestamp using org-expiry
(defadvice org-insert-todo-heading (after mrb/created-timestamp-advice activate)
"Insert a CREATED property using org-expiry.el for TODO entries"
(mrb/insert-created-timestamp)
)
(ad-activate 'org-insert-todo-heading)
So, I get:
**** TODO
:PROPERTIES:
:CREATED: [2014-04-06 sø. 20:11]
:END:
Is there any way to insert a UUID as well?, like:
**** TODO
:PROPERTIES:
:CREATED: [2014-04-06 sø. 20:11]
:UUID: 70f273b5-8bce-315f-6f31-6d9ec9a8b739
:END:
Any pointers as to how I can achieve this?

this kind of does what you want:
#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
(require 'org-id)
(add-hook 'org-insert-heading-hook
#'(lambda ()
(org-entry-put (point) "UUID" (org-id-uuid))))
#+END_SRC
at least it works if you use the menu to insert a new heading. it does not
work if you type the heading by hand.
org-insert-heading-hook
you can probably write a little function that sets a uuid property.
