    I need to put the QRCode reader in the form, so that it reads a content and shows in the field of the submission form.

     

    Example:

     

    An equipment will have a tag with its code and description in the QRCode and I need the form to read and write the description for submission.

     

    I tried to put the Widgets and they are not working. Informs that they need access to the camera. Are there any specific settings? Do you have some form template for me to test?

    You would need to scan the QR code using QR reader with the camera for the widget to work.

    For the QR code widget, you would have to input into the Message field.

    Hello Richie.

    Thanks for the answer.

    I tested the example formus and the same opened the screen for reading but not if the QR codes.

    I test the same QRDroid code and it reads it.


    It is exactly this operation that I need.

    Lero code in a product and it write the same in text in the form field. This form field will be sent to google worksheet.

    Is there a template that reads the cod and writes it in the form field?

    I have tested my sample form and I was able to scan the QR code using the QR reader.
