Pull a Full Beaconstac QR Code Inventory Into a Google Sheet

The Scenario

You inherited this account three weeks ago from someone who left the company. There are apparently 300 active QR codes across five client folders, but you have no idea which ones are performing and which ones haven't been scanned since Q3. The quarterly review is in two days and your manager wants a summary.

The bad version:

  • Log into Beaconstac, open the first client folder, click into each QR code one at a time to see its scan count, copy the number into a Google Sheet row. Multiply by 60 codes in this folder alone.
  • Switch to the next client folder. The UI doesn't have a bulk export option for scan counts across folders simultaneously.
  • At some point around code 180, you realize you've been copying from the wrong column in the dashboard and have to go back.

This review is happening whether the data is clean or not. Spending the next eight hours clicking through a dashboard is not a real option.

The Easy Way: One Prompt in SheetXAI

SheetXAI is an AI agent that lives inside your Google Sheet. It reads your sheet and through its Beaconstac integration it can pull your entire QR code inventory — names, types, scan counts, tags, creation dates — directly into the sheet.

Fetch all Beaconstac QR codes and write QR name, type (static/dynamic), short URL, scan count, tags, and creation date into my sheet — one row per QR code

What You Get

  • One row per QR code, written into the sheet starting at row 2
  • Columns populated: name, type, short URL, scan count, tags (comma-separated), creation date
  • All client folders pulled together, no folder-switching required
  • The data ready to sort by scan count, filter by tag, or pivot into the summary your manager needs

What If the Data Is Not Quite Ready

I only want QR codes from a specific set of tags — filter before writing

Fetch all Beaconstac QR codes tagged "retail-q1" or "retail-q2" and write name, scan count, short URL, and creation date into my sheet — one row per code

I want to flag low performers — add a column marking codes with fewer than 10 scans

Fetch all Beaconstac QR codes and write name, type, scan count, and short URL into columns A–D, then in column E write "low" if scan count is below 10 and "ok" otherwise

The sheet already has headers — I want the data starting at row 2 under existing column headers

Fetch all Beaconstac QR codes and write their data starting at row 2, matching these headers already in row 1: Name (A), Type (B), Short URL (C), Scans (D), Tags (E), Created (F)

Pull the inventory, flag low performers, sort by scan count descending, and add a rank column

Fetch all Beaconstac QR codes, write name, type, scan count, tags, and creation date into the sheet, add a column F marking codes under 10 scans as "review", then sort the output by scan count descending and add a rank number in column G

One prompt handles the data pull, the conditional flag, and the sorting — rather than doing each step separately after the export.
