Unable to scan with qr code scanner component

Hello all,

After installing the qrcode component, it triggers the camera, but nothing happens when I present a qr code. Does anyone know how to get this component to work?

Hi @Geoffroy :wave:

Did you check out the user docs article?

If that’s not helpful, let me know! I’ll make a note to record a video on the topic :slight_smile:

Thank you Joyce,
What is explained in the doc is ok, easy to understand. My problem is that the qr code I present doesn’t scan (it works fine with another qr code reader).

Aaaah ok, got it!

I haven’t seen that happen so far but the feature is only a few weeks old.

Have you been able to get the WeWeb code scanner to work with other QR codes?

If yes, would you mind creating a bug ticket here and sharing the QR code that’s not working so the tech team can look into it?

If no, would you mind recording a short video of your attempt(s) so that I can try to figure out what may be missing?

It works when i scan an encoded url, but not for an integer (tostring formatted), or a stringify json

Forgot to answer but I shared this with the team so they’re aware :slight_smile:

FYI, they’ll have to wait until September to look into it. I hope that’s ok

Yes, that’s ok, thanks Joyce.

Hi, can you provide some examples of QR code that don’t work for you ?
I tried some QR with numbers only, some with JSON and they all work.
What device are you on ?


hi @Geoffroy in case you’re still looking for QR code + barcode functionality, we built and released a free component on the new WeWeb marketplace that scans both QR and barcodes.
