createBulkFlowcodes.js

// Example JavaScript script demonstrating the functionality of bulk creating Flowcode (dynamic QR codes) via the Flowcode API.
// The script makes a POST request to the /v4/codes/bulk endpoint in the createFlowcodes function below.
// Before running this script, simply replace the 'apikey' value with your own API key. 
// For more information and full documentation of all the Flowcode API endpoints, please visit our Developer Portal: https://developer.flowcode.com/

// Function to create many Flowcodes using the Bulk Code Creation API endpoint
async function createFlowcodes(apikey, codes, folderName) {
    // Bulk Flowcode endpoint URL
    const url = "https://gateway.flowcode.com/v4/codes/bulk";

    const requestBody = {

        const errorText = await response.text();
        throw new Error(`Error: ${response.status} - ${errorText}`);
    }
