Using QR Code Stickers for Athlete Identification (ID)

Swift Labs provides the ability to Generate QR Codes to quickly identify athletes in large testing groups.

Generating QR Codes

Swift Labs provides two methods for generating QR codes; firstly, an individual QR code can be generated for a single athlete and secondly multiple QR codes can be generated for a group.

Individual Athlete

Navigating to the athlete detail page by clicking on an athlete in the athlete list will display the detail page shown in the image below. Clicking on the action menu (three dots) will display a few options. Clicking ‘Generate QR’ will display the generated QR code.

Clicking on the three dotes reveals the Generate QR option.

In the QR window, there are two buttons, Download and Print. The download will let you download the image to use with additional software if required.

Clicking on the print button will generate the QR code in a printable document that must be downloaded. The picture below illustrates the generated document. The individual QR document is intended to be generated on for individual printing. For generating multiple QR codes, see the following section.

Group QR Codes

Swift Labs can generate a list of QR codes from a single group or multi-selected athletes. For athletes in a group, navigate to the desired group within the Groups list; clicking on the three dots will expose additional actions. Clicking ‘Generate QR’ will navigate and generate a series of QR codes.

Clicking on the three dots reveals the Generate QR option for groups.

Once you have navigated to the Group QR code page, there are a few actions available. The QR codes are generated in the format that they will be printed as, providing and an overview into how the sticker will look.
