Guide: Creating a QR Code for the Docebo Mobile App (Go.Learn)

As more learners access their training on mobile devices, providing an easy way for them to download and access the Docebo Mobile App (Go.Learn) is essential. One common request is the ability to use QR codes for this purpose. This guide will walk you through the steps to generate a QR code that linksto the app stores and even directly to content within the app.  

 

Benefits of Using QR Codes for Docebo Mobile App 

• Easy Access: Users can scan the QR and be taken directly to the App Store or Google Play Store to download the Go.Learn app. 

• Improved Adoption: Makes it simpler for external groups, partners or employees to install and use the app. 

• Deep Linking Capabilities: QR codes can also be used to link directly to courses or learning materials within the app. 

 

Step 1: Generate a QR Code  

There are multiple free QR code generators available. A few recommended ones: 

• QR Code Generator 

• QR Code Monkey 

• GOQR.me 

 

Steps to Create a QR Code: 

-> Visit one of the QR code generator websites.

-> Enter the following URLs:

• For the Google Play Store:
  https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.docebo.eolo.staging
• For the Apple App Store: 
  • https://apps.apple.com/nl/app/go-learn/id1362542319 

Note: It’s possible the code for the Apple App store is not available for your location, so always test it. For example, in the Netherlands you need to use this URL-Code 

 

 

-> Customize it (optional):

• Add a logo (e.g., your company logo or the Docebo logo) 

• Change colors to match your branding 

• Choose a static or dynamic QR code 

 

-> Download the QR code and save it as a PNG or SVG file for easy sharing. 

 

Step 2: Using Deep Linking for Direct Course Access 

If you want users to scan a QR code and be taken directly to a specific course or resource in the Go.Learn app, you need to create a deep link. 

What is Deep Linking? 

Deep linking allows you to direct users to a specific location within the app rather than just the homepage. 

Example Deep Links: 

• To a specific course: golearn://course/{course_id}
• To a specific channel: golearn://channels/{channel_id}

More details on the deeplinks for go.learn can be found here

Steps to Generate a QR Code for Deep Links: 

1. Find your course/channel URL in Docebo.

2. Enter the deep link into the generator (as described in Step 1). 

3. Download and test the QR to ensure it correctly opens the content in the Go.Learn app. 

 

Step 3: Embedding your QR in Emails and Documents 

For better accessibility, you can embed the codes in: 

• Onboarding documents for new users 

• Printed materials at training locations 

• Company intranet or learning portals 

• Email notifications to learners 

For a detailed guide on adding a QR code to your email, check out this resource. Adding it to your email can be done in a few simple ways, depending on how you want it to appear: 

1. Copy and Paste 
2. Drag and Drop 
3. Insert as an Image File 

 

 

Step 4: Addressing Security Concerns 

Some organizations may be hesitant about QR codes due to security risks. Here are a few best practices: 

• Generate your own QR codes rather than using public or third-party-generated codes. 

• Use HTTPS links to ensure secure connections. 

• Educate users on only scanning trusted QR codes from your company. 

• Use dynamic QR codes (e.g., from Rebrandly) so you can update links without reprinting materials. 

 

Conclusion 

Using QR codes to direct learners to the Docebo Mobile App (Go.Learn) can significantly improve adoption and ease of access. Whether you’re linking to the app download page or deep linking to courses, this simple solution can enhance the learning experience.
