Why this helps

When a deal or contact link is shared in a printed document, collaborators have to type or search for it manually.

  • Turns a supplied deal or contact URL into a QR code image.
  • Makes printed handouts easier to connect to the relevant Affinity record.
  • Avoids retyping record links during meetings.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Affinity and Api2pdf once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation with a name, prompt, and report channel.
  • 3Tell Notis to use the Affinity record URL included in each request as the QR code content.
  • 4Choose a webhook trigger and where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real Affinity URL and scan the resulting QR code.
