yes, some of them just some sort of randomized key or a binary data in base64 encoded string. they'll always have a meaning in a system, how and why ? only the people who know how the system work know.

random _id generated by database when a new entry is created, which then is used as the route when rendering webpages dynamically.

Havn't us answer your question? It is random, not cipher, random, means without a meaning.
