Some QR codes receive error 'The QR code is incomplete' but they can be read into both Google or MS Authenticator apps

What you expected to happen

The QR should be decoded and saved against the Passbolt record

Can you post an example of QR code that doesn't work?

Si-Richards commented 1 month ago

Thanks guys....

To be clearer... Passbolt seems unable to parse Multiformat QR codes which seem to be becoming more common. If I strip out the extra-data it reads fine

We are curious about the kind of data represented in the QR code, given that the amount of data required to represent a TOTP is typically small. Could you please share with us the software that is producing this information? We'd be happy to investigate further.
