generate_qr
Generate a styled QR code image with custom colors, logos, dot styles, and corner shapes. Supports PNG and SVG output. Returns base64-encoded image data. When the content is a URL, a tracked short link is created automatically — the QR encodes the short URL for click analytics.

get_batch_status
Check the status of a batch QR generation job. Use after batch_generate to poll for completion. Returns total, completed, failed counts and individual item statuses.
create_short_link

List tracked short links with click counts. Supports cursor pagination. Returns code, target URL, status, and creation date for each link.
get_link
Get details of a specific short link by ID or code — target URL, status, click count, QR style, and creation date.
update_link
Update a short link — change target URL, status, or expiration. Set status to "disabled" to deactivate without deleting. The QR code continues to work but redirects will stop.
delete_link
Permanently delete a short link and all its associated data (QR targets, analytics, landing pages). This action cannot be undone. Consider using update_link with status "disabled" instead.
get_link_analytics
Get click analytics for a short link — total clicks, unique visitors, breakdown by country and day. Covers the last 30 days.
create_template
Save a QR code style preset. Style presets store visual settings (colors, dot styles, logos, dimensions) that can be applied to any content via render_template. Styles are unlimited and do not count against your quota.
list_templates
List saved QR code style presets. Styles store visual settings (colors, dots, logos) that can be reused across QR codes. Supports cursor pagination.
update_template
Update an existing QR code style preset. Accepts partial updates — only the fields you provide are changed; omitted fields keep their current values. The options field, if provided, fully replaces the stored style options. Use this to rename a preset, adjust colors or shapes, change visibility (is_public), or update tags for searchability. Returns the updated template object including its ID, name, options, and timestamps. Call list_templates first if you need to find the template_id.
