Bulk Generate QR Codes From URLs in a Excel workbook Using Neutrino

The Scenario

Your packaging team is waiting on QR codes. You have 250 product landing page URLs in an Excel workbook — column A, one per SKU. Each one needs a QR code printed on the packaging insert so customers can scan to the product page. The design team is ready to go the moment they have a column of image URLs to batch-download.

The problem is the QR code generation tool your team has been using just hit its monthly limit. And it only supports 50 codes per export batch anyway.

The bad version:

  • Sign up for a new QR code generator, figure out whether it supports batch Excel input or only CSV
  • Generate five batches of 50, download five ZIP files, unzip, rename files to match SKUs
  • Upload the renamed files to the shared drive, realize the naming convention you used doesn't match the SKU column header format the design team expects

Production starts in 48 hours. The design team has been waiting since yesterday.

The Easy Way: One Prompt in SheetXAI

SheetXAI is an AI agent inside your Excel workbook. Through its built-in Neutrino integration, it generates a QR code for each URL in column A and writes the resulting image URL directly into column B — no batch exports, no ZIP files, no file naming.

For each URL in column A, generate a QR code via Neutrino and write the QR image URL into column B.

What You Get

  • Column B: a QR image URL for every product URL in column A, one per row
  • No file downloads or renaming — the design team gets a column of URLs they can reference directly from the workbook
  • 250 QR codes generated in one operation

What If the Data Is Not Quite Ready

Some URLs are missing the https:// prefix

For each URL in column A, add the https:// prefix if it is missing. Then generate a QR code via Neutrino and write the image URL in column B.

You need QR codes for both the product URL and the warranty URL

For each row, generate a QR code via Neutrino for the product URL in column A and write the image URL in column C. Also generate a QR code for the warranty URL in column B and write that image URL in column D.

Some rows have blank URLs for products not yet live

Skip any row where column A is blank. For all rows with a URL, generate a QR code via Neutrino and write the image URL in column B. Flag skipped rows with PENDING in column C.

Full packaging asset prep in one shot

Add https:// to any URL in column A missing the prefix. Generate a QR code via Neutrino for each URL and write the image URL in column B. Skip blank rows and flag them with PENDING in column C. Add a summary note in a header cell showing how many QR codes were generated and how many rows are pending.
