Re: [visualization-api] Re: QR code API deprecated, alternative??

[Gaurav Nema]

I found https://quickchart.io/qr-code-api/ to be a robust and reliable 
alternative. It can easily handle all similar parameters including colors, 
option of generating svg and adding logo

I can't promise anything. One difference between Picasa and Google Image
Charts (not to be confused with the non-deprecated Google Charts, a
JavaScript library for modern interactive charts) is that Picasa was a real
service that required lots live Google engineers. In contrast, Google Image
Charts just runs, without any need for full-timers. I have no plans to
discontinue it, but I don't have a crystal ball.

Honestly, though, QR codes are pretty simple, and you shouldn't need Google
for them. I bet there's a free library on Github that can generate them.

Is it safe to use the deprecated Google chart API for live environment? I worry 
they will discontinue like Picasa

No change, sorry; Google Charts does not support QR codes. Your choices are
to rely on the deprecated Google Image Chart API or to use a non-Google
service for QR codes. (Or just download a software library for generating
the QR codes yourself.)
