The project_slug is slugified version of the project name. Any spaces in the project name are replaced by a hyphen "-" to make it url safe.

The form_ref is a unique identifier assigned to each form. To retrieve it, check the Developers section on your project details page. From the same page you can download the full project definition in JSON format.
The uuid is a unique identifier for an entry. To retrieve a uuid, check the id or entry_uuid attribute of an entry object.
The parent_form_ref is the form ref of a parent form to which a child form is related. To retrieve it, check the Developers section on your project details page. From the same page you can download the full project definition in JSON format.
The parent_uuid is a unique identifier for an entry to which a child or children entries are related. For example, if I have a University form entry "Imperial College", it may have 0, 1 or more Department form entries related to it, such as "DIDE", "Biology" etc and each of these child form entries will be related back to the parent entry via the parent_uuid.
To retrieve this, check the parent.data.parent_uuid attribute of an entry object.
