QR Code APIs

You can use the QR Codes APIs to perform various actions. You can perform all of these actions from the Dashboard as well.

Integration Checklist

Watch Out!

Once the QR Code has been created, you cannot edit its details.

1. Step 1

   If you are creating a Dynamic QR Code, we suggest you create a single customer_id rather than making multiple ids for the same customer. In any case, if their details change, you can use the Edit Customer Details API.

2. Step 2

   To keep a check on the duplicate customer details:

   • If you use the fail_existing : "1" parameter, the API throws an error when existing customer details are added.
   • If you use the fail_existing : "0" parameter, the API returns the customer_id when existing customer details are added.
3. Step 3

   Use Payment Downtime API to check for any downtimes that might affect the UPI generation/transactions.

4. Step 4

   Please note that the Razorpay order id gets generated automatically when a customer makes the payment using the QR Code provided by you.

5. Step 5

   While creating a QR Code via API or using the Dashboard, make sure that you pass all the critical parameters for non-GST and GST QR Codes.

6. Step 6

   Pass the type as upi_qr while creating the QR Code. Since we also have a BharatQR feature, not passing the type can lead to errors.

7. Step 7

   Check the difference between Static and Dynamic QR Codes:

Dynamic QR | Static QR

Single use. Can be used only once. | Can be used multiple times.

If it is generated for specific customers, then you can pass customer_id. | Not required to pass customer_id.

8. If the fixed_amount parameter is passed, you must pass the amount parameter at the time of QR Code creation.
9. To fetch the details about the QR Codes, you can use QR Code webhooks or use Fetch a QR Code API to get details about payment activity or the status of your QR Codes.
10. We recommend using the Fetch a QR Code API to fetch relative information about QR Codes.

Best Practices for Image Content Integration

You can check the contents passed in the QR Code using the response payload for Create a QR Code. The image_content parameter displays the QR Code content. For Example, once the qr_image_content feature is enabled, you can get the Create QR Code response as given on the right-hand side.
