Generate QR Code

Overview

The Generate QR Code service generates a unique QR code for registered leads, which can act as an event ticket. The service takes an email address and a QR Code string (containing relevant event details) as input, and returns a URL pointing to the generated QR Code image.

The QR code can be scanned at the event to retrieve the information embedded within it — ideal for event organizers who need to provide attendees with QR codes for entry.

3. Return Output: A URL pointing to the generated QR code image is returned.

Example Scenario

A company hosting an event needs to issue unique QR codes to each registered attendee.

Attendee Details:

• First Name: Mike
• Last Name: Jordan
• Email: abc123@example.com
• Lead ID: 987643
• Company: RightWave
• Event Venue: Suite-203J, RightWave Infosolutions, Dehradun 248001

QR Code String (JSON):

{
  "email": "abc123@example.com",
  "leadID": "987643",
  "firstName": "Mike",
  "lastName": "Jordan",
  "company": "RightWave",
  "EventVenue": "Suite-203J, RightWave Infosolutions, Dehradun 248001"
}

API Request:

POST https://api.rightwave.com/rdn/api/adv/genrateQRCode

Response:

{
  "qrcodeurl": "https://api.rightwave.com/rdn/qr/6156b29e65bcfc5664451e97"
}

The qrcodeurl field contains the URL to the generated QR code image, which can be mapped to a Marketo field and included in emails or landing pages.
