QR Codes, Simplified — and Fully Native in Salesforce
QR codes are everywhere—on packaging, equipment, signage, tickets, and even the backs of ID badges. And for good reason: they’re a simple, efficient way to connect the physical world with digital information.
That’s why we built full QR code support directly into Gimbal Barcode.
Whether you need to display a QR code on a mobile phone or scan one to retrieve a Salesforce record, our tools make it easy to put QR codes to work in your business processes—with no external platforms, no extra apps to install, and expert implementation assistance every step of the way.
What You Can Do with QR Codes in Salesforce
We help clients use QR codes in a wide range of everyday workflows. Here are two of the most common:
1. Scan a QR Code to View Record Details
QR codes are perfect when someone needs quick, no-hassle access to information—especially in the field, on the shop floor, or out at events.
With Gimbal Barcode, you can generate a QR code from any Salesforce record and scan it using a mobile device or external scanner. It instantly loads the related record—no searching or typing needed.
We’ve used this pattern to:
Open a device’s service history from a QR label
Display product specs, serials, or configuration notes
Track materials, inventory, or assets across locations
2. Display a QR Code for Check-In or Access
Sometimes, the user is the barcode.
With Gimbal Barcode, you can send a unique link by email or SMS that opens a personalized QR code on the user’s phone. They simply show it at the door to check in.
We’ve helped organizations use this approach for:
Volunteer and student check-in
Appointment and clinic entry
It’s fast, mobile-friendly, and doesn’t require any app installation.
Designed to Be Simple, Scalable, and Native
We know QR code solutions can feel technical or overwhelming at first. That’s why we designed Gimbal Barcode to make the process intuitive—especially for Salesforce admins and process builders.
Everything happens within Salesforce:
Generate QR codes using Visualforce, Apex, or Flow
Embed them in documents, emails, or Lightning pages
Scan using built-in Flow components or standard hardware
Automate what happens after the scan—updates, lookups, or navigation
No middleware. No hidden licensing. No extra systems to manage.
