Bruke eksisterende QR kode til ONIX

Q&A
,

Hei,

Vi har en del utstyr som vi nå har fått lagt inn i Onix.
Dette utstyret har fra tidligere en ID-lapp med en QR kode som er knyttet opp mot et annet system.
Er det mulig å få koblet opp denne QR koden inn mot Onix slik at en kan finne utstyret i Onix dersom en scanner det via worker appen?
QR koden som er på utstyret i dag er en enkel tekst linje som inneholder blant annet “eiers utstyrs ID”.

Hi @Lars_Almås

Thanks for reaching out!

There are several ways to link tags to equipment in Onix.

If that is a tag you bought from Onix, please enter the Onix ID in Onix Work, Onix Worker, or Onix Inspect.

  1. Go to Equipment module.
  2. Search for a desired equipment and open it.
  3. In Equipment details section, click Edit.
  4. Select Onix ID field.
  5. Look for the code printed on your physical Onix Tag and enter it in the field.
  6. Click OK.
  7. Click Save.

Regardless of whether the tags are bought from Onix or not, you can scan them on Onix Worker or Onix Inspect to link them to equipment.

  1. Go to Equipment module.
  2. Search for a desired equipment and open it.
  3. Click the image scan button.

  4. Scan a tag using your device’s camera.
  5. A message pops up confirming: “The tag has been linked to the equipment.”

If it is not an Onix Tag, Onix supports the following three types of tag values:

  • Short GUID
  • GUID
  • HEX string

Also, tag values must:

  • Comply with ISO standard and be globally unique.
  • For QR codes: the QR code must contain a URL that points to Onix Work. This means scanning the QR code should open a page in Onix Work that shows the related requipment. QR codes that link to other websites or contain plain text values are not supported.

Explanation of each type

1. Short GUID

  • A 22-character string
  • Can contain:
    • Letters A–Z, a–z
    • Numbers 0–9
    • The characters + and /

2. GUID

  • Standard format:
    00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000
  • A total of 32 characters, divided into 5 groups separated by hyphens (-)
  • Contains only:
    • Letters A–F, a–f
    • Numbers 0–9

3. HEX string

  • A string consisting only of:
    • Numbers: 0–9
    • Letters: A–F (case-insensitive)
  • Must NOT contain spaces, hyphens, or any other characters
  • Length:
    • From 5 to 40 characters

Hi,

The QR codes are from before we implemented Onix, they don’t have any relation to Onix at all.
The question is if it’s possible to use non-onix native QR codes to link to equipment in Onix?

Hi @Lars_Almås,

My apologies for any confusion caused so far.

For this specific use case, unfortunately, it’s impossible to link the QR code to equipment in Onix because the embedded URL points to another system, not Onix Work.

I editted my previous response to include our requirements for linking non-Onix tags to equipment.
