Using QR Codes
Every shortcut in Lora automatically generates a QR code when it is created. QR codes make it easy to share shortcuts offline or in physical spaces where typing a link isn’t convenient.
Where to find QR codes
You can find the QR code for any shortcut on its details page. The QR code is displayed alongside the shortcut information and can be downloaded as an image file for printing or sharing.
How QR codes work
When someone scans a Lora QR code, it opens the shortcut’s destination just like if they had typed the shortcut slug. QR codes are powered by Lora’s short domain lor.cx/[workspace]/[shorcut], which ensures they remain fast, lightweight, and easy to share.
All QR code scans are tracked in Analytics, so you can see when and how often a QR code is used. This makes it simple to measure engagement with printed materials, posters, or physical assets.
Use cases
QR codes are especially useful for:
- Posting on office walls or doors to quickly access room booking pages
- Adding to training manuals or onboarding documents
- Labeling equipment with links to setup guides
- Sharing quick links during events or presentations
Downloading QR codes
To save a QR code, open the shortcut’s details page and click the Download QR Code button. The file is saved as a standard image that can be printed, shared in slides, or added to documentation.
Using QR codes with shortcuts helps bridge the gap between digital and physical workflows while giving you full insight into usage through Analytics.
