How to use the phone camera to scan a QR code and open a specific record in Airtable

How can I create a QR code URL for every record in Airtable? We want to pull up a particular record when we scan a QR code.

Updated this week

Using miniExtensions, you can generate a QR code for every record so that people can scan it with their camera and see that record in their browser. Here's how:

  1. Copy the edit records formula from your miniExtensions form

  2. Paste the formula into a formula field in Airtable

  3. Use this formula field as the source for our QR code generator automation

By default, fields will be editable by the user! You can set any fields you want your users to only view, but not edit to read-only.

If you'd like your QR code to not just display, but also update a record automatically, have a look at this article!
