Once you have created your personal shortlink, you may not only want to spread it via Internet, but offline as well.
Some people may find it easier to scan a QR (quick response) code instead of typing your URL.

This is where the /qr/ endpoint comes into play.

The easiest way to retrieve your code is by firing an API call with the link you want to picture.
In return you’ll get a download link where you find your code. By default it will be black on white with square elements. In the center of the code you’ll find an AlleTips-Logo (option to choose your own icon or hide it altogether is already on the roadmap).

It will look similar to this:

(actually 1710x1710 pixels in dimension and .PNG in format)

If you want to personalize it, you can customize several settings:

• Shape: “round” or “square” --> choose the shape of the QR code’s elements (Default: “square”)
• bg (Background) color: HEX-Code (Default: #FFFFFF, meaning white)
• fg (Foreground) color: HEX-Code (Default: #000000, meaning black)
