I am having difficulties having udev recognize a drive by uuid. I'll outline the problem with a simpler version of my problem.
If I try this simple rule (in /etc/udev/rules.d/50-backupdrive.rules):
ENV{ID_FS_UUID}=="8eddab0f-de61-4220-bc7f-749665c40758", RUN +="/usr/bin/logger udev rule success, drive: %k with uuid $env{ID_FS_UUID}"
and I insert my USB drive with a partition containing that uuid, I do not see the message outputted to /var/log/syslog as expected.
However, if I run the following more generic command:
KERNEL=="sd?[0-9]",RUN +="/usr/bin/logger udev rule success, drive: %k with uuid $env{ID_FS_UUID}"
I indeed do see text outputted to /var/log:
Apr 22 18:06:35 xxxxxx root: udev rule success, drive: sdd2 with uuid 8eddab0f-de61-4220-bc7f-749665c40758
This included the uuid so indeed the uuid must be correct. Also, this confirms that udev must be working as well.
Does anyone have an idea as to what may be occurring? I have searched on these forums and not found something specific to my problem :-(. Thanks!
Some more details that may help:

Also, when I plug in my usb drive, dmesg
reads:

Answer
You need to have your rule run after the built-in rule which learns the UUID in the first place.
i.e. Mine was /etc/udev.rules/30-foo.rules, but changing it to "zz-foo.rules" worked like a charm because it's guaranteed to run near the end of all rules:
udevadm test /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:16.2/usb3/3-4/3-4:1.0/host13/target13:0:0/13:0:0:0/block/sde/sde1
(snip)
run: '/usr/bin/logger udev rule success, drive: sde1 with uuid 456bBLAH-3399-4fec-a304-BLAH388e2bc3'
(snip)
Figured this out by reading
Use UUID in udev rules and mount usb drive on /media/$UUID
