The object id is look like GUID format (Globally Unique Identifier) this GUID is based on machine information in sql server GUID is known by UNIQUEIDENTIFIER
data type
So as mentioned by marc you can use UNIQUEIDENTIFIER
data type in SQL Server is the correct one for object id in Azure Active Directory
your object id is a base 16-byte number that 491a that four is basically represent what version you are using and yours's Random ID version its claim to uniqueness, if you have two same random id (object id) chances of having collision and it incredibly low so make sure while choosing recheck object id's
