Hello!

I am working on an inventory project and have created a view that groups items by location (ie. bin 1, bin 2, bin 3). I would like to make QR codes for each bin that you can scan and view its contents. I was wondering if it's possible to generate links to specific groups within a view!

Hmm, I don't think so I'm afraid.  As a workaround perhaps you could try converting the location you're grouping by into a linked field to a new table, and having the QR code point at that record instead?  The user could then see all the linked records items in that location record

You could also try creating a shared view and using URL filters: https://support.airtable.com/docs/shared-view-url-filters

I think you might also be able to do this with an Interface with URL filters too although that seems like it might be trickier as it seems to be encoded in some form

Or try building an interface. You can use tabs to show each group and use those URLs.
