Simulating illumina sequences with UMI data

Hi so I am quite new to this area of biology, so please excuse (and also correct) any incorrect nomenclature.

I have been simulating Illumina reads using ART, and running them through a genotyping pipeline to test it. However, as far as I can tell ART does not support adding UMI information to the simulation.

Is there any software that can do that?

I don't readily recall any software (does not mean it does not exist) that simulates UMI's. Unless you must have a simulated dataset there should be enough datasets available to use.

All 10x datasets have UMI's. You can download many here.

Searching with UMI + RNAseq in sra-explorer (LINK) shows many samples.

Thank you, that is also very helpful
