# Feature: #108720 - QR code button for frontend preview {#feature-108720-1769035130}

See [forge#108720](https://forge.typo3.org/issues/108720)

## Description {#description}

A new QR code button has been added next to the **View** button in
various backend modules. Clicking the button opens a modal displaying a
scannable QR code for the frontend preview URI.

The button is available in the following locations:

-   **Content > Records** module
-   **Content > Preview** module
-   **Content > Publish** module (workspaces)

In addition, the **Show QR code** item in the context menu of a page
opens the same modal, which makes the QR code available wherever a page is
listed, for example in the page tree.

Inside a workspace a QR code contains a special preview URI that will
work without backend authentication. This makes it easy to share workspace
previews with colleagues and clients, or to quickly check draft versions on a
mobile device by scanning the code.

The QR code can be downloaded as PNG or SVG from the modal.

## Impact {#impact}

Editors can benefit from a streamlined workflow by sharing page previews and
testing pages on mobile devices. Workspace-aware preview URIs eliminate the
need to be logged in when scanning the QR code, making it particularly useful
for reviewing processes involving external stakeholders.
