Turn a booking URL into a scannable code

Send a request to Notis with the booking URL and ask Api2pdf to make a QR code image for sharing.

Trigger

Webhook received

Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.

Action

Generate Barcode or QR Code

Tool to generate barcodes or qr codes using zebra crossing (zxing). use when you need a barcode or qr code image from text values.

Why this helps

Generating a scannable version of a booking link manually slows down event and client follow-up.

  • Start QR generation from an HTTP request
  • Reuse booking links in printed or visual materials
  • Avoid a separate QR creation step

  • 1Connect Api2pdf once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation and name it for booking QR requests.
  • 3Tell Notis to generate a QR code image with Api2pdf from the booking URL supplied in each request.

  • 5Test by sending one real request with a booking URL.
