Can I update QR Codes after importing?

Yes! Dynamic QR Codes can be updated at any time from your dashboard. Static QR Codes cannot be modified after creation.

What happens if some rows fail validation?

CodeQR will show you which rows have errors and what the issues are. You can fix your CSV file and upload again. Only valid rows will be imported.

Can I import QR Codes with custom designs?

The CSV import creates QR Codes with default styling. After import, you can edit each QR Code individually to customize colors, add logos, and apply frames.

Is there a limit to how many QR Codes I can import?

The file size limit is 2MB. The number of QR Codes you can import depends on your plan's limits.

How to Import QR Codes from a CSV File

You can import your existing QR Codes into CodeQR via our CSV import feature. This is useful if you have a large number of QR Codes to create or if you want to migrate from another provider.

Step 1: Prepare Your CSV File

Before uploading, make sure your CSV file is formatted correctly. Your CSV file should have the following columns:

Required Columns

Optional Columns

Understanding QR Code Types

Each QR Code type expects a specific format for the VALUE column:

Dynamic vs Static QR Codes

Understanding the difference between dynamic and static QR Codes is important:

Static QR Codes (FORMAT: static)

The content is encoded directly in the QR Code
Cannot be changed after creation
FLEXIBLE must be false
VALUE is required and contains the actual content

Dynamic QR Codes (FORMAT: dynamic)

The QR Code points to a short URL that redirects to your content
Content can be changed at any time without reprinting the QR Code
FLEXIBLE must be true
VALUE can be empty (will be set up later) or contain the initial destination

CSV Format Notes

Use semicolon (;) or comma (,) as delimiter - both are supported
Wrap values in quotes if they contain special characters or commas
All boolean values accept: true, false, yes, no, 1, 0
Column names are case-insensitive during mapping

Sample CSV Files

Example 1: Static QR Codes

FORMAT,TYPE,FLEXIBLE,VALUE
static,url,false,https://example.com/page1
static,phone,false,+1234567890
static,text,false,Hello World
static,email,false,contact@company.com

Example 2: Dynamic QR Codes

FORMAT,TYPE,FLEXIBLE,VALUE,TRACK_CONVERSION
dynamic,url,true,https://example.com/promo,true
dynamic,vcard,true,,false
dynamic,url,true,https://shop.example.com,true

Example 3: Mixed with Optional Features

FORMAT,TYPE,FLEXIBLE,VALUE,TRACK_CONVERSION,PRE_REDIRECTION,PAGE_URL
static,url,false,https://example.com/docs,false,false,
dynamic,url,true,https://example.com/landing,true,true,https://mypage.com/welcome
dynamic,vcard,true,,false,false,

You can also download a sample CSV file directly from the import modal.

Step 2: Open the Import Modal

From your QR Codes dashboard, click on the dropdown arrow next to the Create QR Code button and select Import from CSV.

Step 3: Upload Your CSV File

The import modal will open with a file upload area. You can either:

Click to browse and select your CSV file, or
Drag and drop your CSV file into the upload area

Note: The maximum file size is 2MB.

You can also click Download sample CSV to get a template file with the correct format.

Step 4: Map Your Columns

After uploading, CodeQR will automatically detect the columns in your CSV file and attempt to map them to the corresponding fields. You can review and adjust the mappings as needed.

Required Mappings

Make sure to map all four required columns:

Format → Your FORMAT column
Type → Your TYPE column
Flexible → Your FLEXIBLE column
Value → Your VALUE column

Optional Features

You can enable additional features by toggling the switches:

Conversion Tracking: Map a column to enable/disable conversion tracking per QR Code
Pre-Redirection Page: Map columns for pre-redirection settings (PRE_REDIRECTION, PAGE_URL, PAGE_ID)

Select Domain

Choose the domain for your imported QR Codes from the dropdown. All QR Codes will be created under this domain.

Once you've reviewed the mappings, click Confirm import.

Step 5: Review Import Summary

After confirming, you'll see a summary showing how many QR Codes are ready to be imported. You can:

Click Start import to begin the import process
Click Delete if you want to cancel and start over

Step 6: View Your Imported QR Codes

Once the import is complete, you'll be redirected to your QR Codes dashboard where you can see all your newly imported QR Codes.

Troubleshooting

Common Validation Errors

If your CSV contains invalid data, you'll see validation errors before the import proceeds. Common issues include:

ErrorCauseSolutionInvalid FORMAT valueFORMAT is not dynamic or staticUse only dynamic or staticInvalid TYPE valueTYPE is not one of the allowed content typesCheck the allowed types list aboveInvalid FLEXIBLE valueBoolean value not recognizedUse true, false, yes, no, 1, or 0Required field is emptyA required column (FORMAT, TYPE, FLEXIBLE, VALUE) is emptyFill in all required fieldsInvalid URLURL format is incorrectMake sure URLs start with http:// or https://FLEXIBLE/FORMAT mismatchStatic QR with FLEXIBLE=true or Dynamic with FLEXIBLE=falseStatic must have FLEXIBLE=false, Dynamic must have FLEXIBLE=true

Rules to Remember

Static QR Codes: FORMAT=static requires FLEXIBLE=false and a non-empty VALUE
Dynamic QR Codes: FORMAT=dynamic requires FLEXIBLE=true (VALUE can be empty)
URL types: When TYPE=url, the VALUE must be a valid URL

Tips for Successful Imports

Test with a small file first: Start with a few QR Codes to verify your format is correct
Use consistent formatting: Keep boolean values consistent throughout (all true/false or all 1/0)
Validate URLs: Ensure all URLs are complete and valid
Check special characters: Wrap values containing commas or quotes in double quotes
Match FORMAT and FLEXIBLE: Remember that static QR Codes need FLEXIBLE=false and dynamic need FLEXIBLE=true
