QR Codes

Retrieve QR Code

Retrieve one QR code by id.

target.editable tells you whether the code can be re-pointed through PATCH /v1/qr-codes/{id}. Codes authored in the QRKit dashboard — link pages, forms, menus, app-store and smart-URL codes, and uploaded file/audio/video codes — report editable: false; their target.destination is the public hosted page URL (the same value as short_url) rather than the stored document or file key, and linkpage, form and menupage additionally carry a small target.summary.

GET

Authorizations

Authorization

string

header

required

API key in the Authorization header: Bearer qr_live_… or Bearer qr_test_…. Token endpoints take a Clerk session JWT instead.

Path Parameters

string

required

qr_… (dynamic) or sqr_… (static).

Response

The QR code

string

qr_… for dynamic, sqr_… for static.

Example:

"qr_123"

object

string

Example:

"qr_code"

kind

enum<string>

Available options:

dynamic,

static

name

string

type

string

The stored type: any target.type the API creates (a review is stored as linkpage), gs1, or a dashboard-only type such as file, menupage, form or smarturl. Treat unknown values as opaque.

Example:

"url"

short_code

string

Example:

"AB3D5"

short_url

string | null

null for static codes. On the workspace custom domain when the code was created on one. For a dynamic GS1 code this is the Digital Link URI itself, not <host>/<short_code>.

Example:

"https://qrkit.to/AB3D5"

domain_id

string | null

The custom domain short_url is on, or null for the default host (and for static codes).

Example:

"dom_3"

gs1

object

Present on GS1 codes only. The identifier half is READ-ONLY (R4 — it is printed); links and overrides are the editable half.

Show child attributes

target

object

Show child attributes

design

object | null

Show child attributes

folder_id

string | null

Example:

"fld_12"

tags

string[]

image_url

string

Example:

"https://img.useqrkit.com/qr-AB3D5-1717000000000.svg"

download_url

string

Example:

"/v1/qr-codes/qr_123/download"

is_active

boolean

Dynamic codes: whether the redirect is on. Static codes: false while the code is in the Trash (the printed payload itself keeps working).

scan_count

integer | null

null for static codes (no tracking).

utm

object | null

UTM parameters (null unless set on a dynamic url code).

Show child attributes

created_at

string<date-time>

updated_at

string<date-time>

deleted_at

string<date-time> | null

null for a live code. Set while the code is in the Trash (or paused by a plan downgrade); restore it with POST /v1/qr-codes/{id}/restore.
