you could just create a qr code that goes to a link that in turn runs a query script.

@Friedrich Don't think about the QR code. the QR code is just a way to preset text information.
If the user needs to visit yourwebsite.com/test to do something then make your app working with that URL then convert that URL to QR.

@Friedrich sorry for the late reply
for example
https://www.qr-code-generator.com/
put your website link in the text box and that will generate a QR code that works forever.
have the link run a query.

@friedrich You can call a URL. What that URL does is up to you though. And consider the security implications of rows being written to a database by merely accessing a URL. Because there’s also no difference to a user accessing a URL via scanning a QR code, and then also just manually typing and accessing that URL.

I was wondering if i successfully scanned the qr code, the url will show up in my phone for example? Even the localhost was 127.0.1:8000 something like that?

@Friedrich Yes. A QR code is just some encoded data, and that data can be a URL. There’s nothing “hidden” or “secret” when it comes to data in QR codes.
If you create a QR code for a URL, then consider that URL public.

@Friedrich qr code is just an alias for a url. If you cannot type the url into your browser and have it connect, then it's not going to be any different if that url is presented as a qr code
