}Query Parameters
| Name | Type | Required | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|---|---|
view_type | string | No | all | Filter/grouping of categories. Allowed values: all, recommended, use_case, content_type, favourite. |
all— returns a flat list of all categories.recommended— returns categories highlighted as recommended as per your industry (if provided)use_case— groups categories by common use cases (e.g., Information & Navigation).content_type— groups by content type (e.g., Redirection, Link to a Scanova Landing Page).favourite— returns user favorites if available
Authorizations
Send your Management API key as the raw value of the Authorization header — no "Bearer " or "Token " prefix, and no other characters. Example: Authorization: YOUR_API_KEY. A header containing more than one space-separated part is rejected outright. Requests also require the request's Host header to be the management API host (e.g. api.scanova.io) — the same key sent to the regular API host will not authenticate.
Query Parameters
Comma-separated filter on supported QR types, e.g. st,dy,bt.
Reshape the response into named sections: recommended, use_case, content_type, or favourite.
recommended, use_case, content_type, favourite Response
Categories, keyed by section name.
