Usage
Whenever someone submits your form, they will receive by email a pass with a QR code. They can use this as their pass at your event. You can use the initial (Configuration tab) page of the addon to setup the title and content of the email sent to form responders. If you’re not automatically collecting email, the addon will let you specify the field where users manually enter their email.

When you save settings for the first time, the addon will transparently configure an app on our QR code tracking platform for you. This step depends on the field configured for your form. Therefore, make sure you are done designing your form questions before using the addon. Don’t panic if you need to change your form : just save the settings again and we will refresh everything.
From the Home tab, you can access the check-in app using various alternatives, either in the same browser or on your smartphone. You can even add a different account for a coworker, so you can tell after event which attendees were checked-in by which coworker.

You can scan a group of QR code passes, by showing them to the camera one after another, in quick succession. For the default check-in, you don’t need to enter any additional data. Currently, the title on QR passes is derived from name fields in your form, and the subtitle is the project name. These (and the design) can easily be changed on the “Settings” tab.

You also have access to several reports (people registered but not checked in, people checked in, etc.), which you can export to Excel. In addition, you can download all QR passes here. This is handy if you need to print them for your attendees (though you can directly scan the PDF on their phone to avoid printing).

Post-install tips
Make sure one of your form fields collects the user’s email. Then, select that field in the configuration to setup QR code pass generation.
Labels on the QR code pass PDF will be automatically build from questions with “name” in their title, or the first question in the form.
Feel free to submit a test response to the form yourself, and check your email for a sample QR code pass.
Frequently asked questions
How do I add other staff to help validate passes or record attendance?
You can send access link to your staff, in the “Check-in app” section of the add-on (“Home” tab), by selecting “Get link by email”.
How do I record attendance per event session?
Several check-in types are available inside the add-on, on the “Settings” tab, under “Check-in type”. You can learn more about them in our QR code check-in types tutorial video.
How do I customize the design of the PDF QR code ticket?
The card can be customized on the “Settings” tab, under “Ticket design”. You can select an A4 or credit card size custom design, which allows you to add a logo, a background image, and select where the text displayed on the card comes from. You can learn more about this in our QR code ticket design tutorial video.
Can I import attendees that registered through other means?
Yes, the companion app used for check-in can also be used to manually register people, using the “Registration” button. Bulk import from a CSV is also possible, though not currently activated by default. Please reach out and we’ll help you.
How can I get attendance data in Google Sheets?
After activation, the add-on provides a special formula that you can paste inside a Google Sheets cell (see the “Reports” tab). This loads check-in data, and will be refreshed every time you open the spreadsheet. Learn more with our QR code ticket check-in reports tutorial video.
How do I add a shortcut for the validation camera on my smartphone’s homescreen?
You can use “Install app” or similar from your browser’s menu, or click the “Android app” link at the bottom of the page.
How do I enable camera access for the check-in app?
The check-in app ask for camera access the first time you try check-in. If this doesn’t work, please try these instructions for iOS. For Android/Chrome, open https://admin.trak.codes in your browser, then follow the instructions here to allow camera access for https://admin.trak.codes. If you denied camera permissions by mistake, please try these instructions.
