Tracked Entity Instance QR Code

[dina.mazloum]

Hello team,

I am writing to ask you if is there is a way to render a tracked entity field as a QR Code.
I already have it and it includes a unique and auto generated Member ID.
So I need to have the ID in a QR Code. Is it possible or no ?

Thank you for your continuous help,

Best

@dina.mazloum thank you for your question! As you can see QR/Barcodes are supported in DHIS2:

@marta

QR and Barcodes supported: Data elements or attributes or type text can be configured as QR or barcodes. When a Data Element or Attribute is rendered as QR/Barcode, the app will open the device camera to read the code image. When the QR/Barcode is a TEI attribute configured as searchable, the user will be allowed to scan the code in order to search and identify the Tracked Entity Instance. This will also work for option sets.

So my question for you is if you would please explain your use case a bit more?

I know this response may not be necessary but for anyone trying to implement a QR Code for the android app, this here is a good resource.

I was trying to implement it and I have been successful. As always, thank @Gassim for sharing the release notes. Out of curiosity, does this implementation also work on the browser?
