Default incoming qcr information to input form

[Matthew_Brown]

Is this possible - @praveen (and I see @Anand_Venu also asked… in post Scan QR code and get the information filled in a form)

1. scan qcr code from iphone/android (outside of appsheet - assume person doesn’t know appsheet exists)
2. app launches, b/c qcr code is pointed to appsheet app
3. app recognized qcr values, and defaults incoming values

ex. QCR code on piece of equipment called “thingamjigger”. Need user to scan it with phone and take them to the app. The app then has text field defaulted to “thingamjigger”.

thanks!

Responded in the referenced thread. You need a deep link to an app specifying the form view and the default values.

Adding @Gil – could you please point Matt to the best documentation we have for launching an AppSheet app via a deep link

Hi @Matthew_Brown,
I think praveen’s post in the other thread covers all you need to do.
When a user opens a deeplink (or scans a QR that contains a deeplink) in a mobile device one of 2 thing will happen:

• If AppSheet is installed on the user’s device, the app would open and navigate to the deeplink.
• If AppSheet isn’t installed the deeplink would open in the browser.
