Unable to authenticate the QR Code

Closed

I'm unable to scan the QR Code on multiple runs. So tried scanning the QR using a regular QR scanned and found that it returns text that starts with "undefined". Then I noticed that the QR changes in between. However I'm unable to authenticate both the QR's.

I would need more information to help you solve this issue, can you screen record both of your system and phone and send them here, or explain the steps you have followed and exact error messages you saw?

FYI - I will have to close the issue if I don't get additional information requested

Please find the screenshot of the undefined character detected in the QR code detected on this actor. I've shared a QR code form whatsapp for web for comparison. Hope this helps

You've scanned using your phone's camera, You must follow the instructions for opening the scanner just above the QR code itself:

Open your whatsapp app on your phone and go to Whatsapp menu > Linkedin Devices and click on 'Link a device' button and scan the QR code

I did that only to show you the resolved QR link. I do login as per instructions. This screenshot was just for debugging purposes. Will send a screen grab of the QR code changing. It happens when I scan from whatsapp.

Okay, I see there were some issues, I've sent an update. Try again and let me know

Tried both datacenter and residential proxies but the QR isn't loading. What's the best way to try?

Tried multiple times and used my country as input on the proxy but its just timing out after 5 mins. Thanks for adding the timeout :)
