QR Code Field Type

The QR Code field is an advanced field type that allows you to generate a QR code image within the mobile app and is offline capable.

A QR Code (quick response code) is a type of two-dimensional barcode often containing embedded data for a locator, identifier, or link that points to a website or application.

Add a QR Code Field

When designing a Data Entry Form under Advanced Fields, drag 'n drop or left-click to add a QR Code field to the design.

Once added, select the field in the design preview to edit its properties on the right, such as the Dynamic QR Value that drives the QR image displayed, dynamically or statically.

Configure a QR Code Field

Dynamically

By referencing the data name of another field in your form's design, you can dynamically drive the QR Code's value based on user-captured data.

Statically

Websites or links can also be added directly into the field's Dynamic QR value property to drive the QR image.

The value you pass into the QR Code field's "Dynamic QR Value" property is the value that will be returned when the QR code is scanned. You can pass any value to the Dynamic QR Value: a URL, a web address, a string of text, a GUID, numbers, a reference code, etc. You can then search a data source with the value returned from a QR code scan by following the instructions here.
