It is no longer possible to find an avatar's UUID through search after the search results were changed to link to the new web profiles. Sayrah Parx 07:09, 30 April 2011 (PDT)

Hi, to see the key with the new profiles, press the green Actions button and hover your mouse over any the first few menu items there, for example "IM". The URL with the avatar's key will appear in the status bar at the bottom of the profile floater.
A second way to get keys in viewer 2 is to go to preferences and enable plain text chat and IM history. In this mode, when you right click on an avatar's name, you will see a "Copy SLUrl to clipboard" menu item, and the SLurl that goesw to the clipboard will contain the key. This method does have a drawback, the avatar has to chat something before you can use that menu. --Cerise Sorbet 10:50, 30 April 2011 (PDT)
I personally find easier to use such a link: http://w-hat.com/name2key?name=opensource+obscure (replace first and last names as needed) --oobscure 04:11, 1 May 2011 (PDT)
