Invalid QR Code

[Former Member]

Dear Community,

I've created an Application with Design Studio, basend on an Analysis for Office workbook.

I can view the Application in my Browser, but when I try to open the Application via my iPhone by scanning the generated QR-Code, there is this message : "Invalid QR-Code"

Has anybody come across this, too? Who can help?

Thanks in advance!

Hi Sarah,

When you open "QR code" , there is button on the bottom left corner "Copy URL to clipboard".

Could you please click on it and paste the link in browser and see if the application opens?

If you are running in BIP mode, application should open but if you are running in Local mode you may need to enable Externalization on Designer before accessing QR code.

Tools -> Preferences -> Application Design -> Tick "Allow external access to embedded Web server"/

Also I'd suggest to use different QR code reader and see if that resolves the issue ?

Best Regards,

Hi Pukhraj,

you were right about the Preferences settign. As soon as I had flagged "Allow external access to embedded Web server" I was able to view my Application on my iPhone. But I still had to use Quick Scan rather than the SAP BI App. Here I still faced "Invalid QR-Code".

Now I need to adapt the layout of the application, as the export function from Analysis Office doesn't consider the medium used to view the data.

Kind regards and Thank you for your help!
