Render a QR code (stores nothing)
Encodes your content into a QR image and returns it in the response body. Nothing is stored: no QR code record is created, no UUID is minted, no redirect through this domain is involved, no audit entry is written, and the encoded content is not logged.
Every other endpoint here creates a dynamic code, which encodes a /q/{uuid} address on this domain and resolves to your destination on each scan — that is what lets a printed code be re-pointed later. This one encodes your address directly, so the scanner never touches us. The trade is the obvious one: a code rendered here can never be re-pointed, and it records no scans. Print it only when that is what you want.
Send either data (the literal payload) or qr_type plus content (a type described by its fields). The types that resolve to a page this application serves — social, app, coupon, menu, barcode, gift_giveaway — are refused here, because there is no version of them that encodes nothing of ours.
Four advisory headers ride on the response, because an image body has nowhere to put them: X-QR-Scannable (yes or warnings), X-QR-Warnings, X-QR-Contrast-Ratio, and X-QR-Frame-Omitted on a PNG whose design carries a frame or caption.
Requires the api_access plan feature. Without it this endpoint answers 403 even with valid credentials.
