GENERATE QR CODE
API QR-Code

Earlier we have already considered the way of automatic creation of QR codes without manual interaction with our generator (QR codes and Zapier - automation in action). Today we will talk about using our official QR code API. 

 

API (Application Programming Interface) is a type of software interface, which connects different products and services with each other. In this case, the internal implementation of the service embedded into the existing architecture through the API is not important for the developer. This helps to save development time and money. In the case of QR codes, it is expressed in the lack of necessity to create them manually through the user interface of the generator with the following saving and inserting into the necessary service.

Apply Request

4. Apply your request

You can use the built request both directly in your system or workflow and in special services for working with API, such as Postman. The latter approach will allow you to set up a connection with your site, to automate the construction of requests and their automatic sending to Postman, for certain actions on the site.
