Hello Dan,

Thank you for the details. I was able to check in with the correct channels, and they already knew about the unavailable URL.

The link has already been updated in the master branch of nRF Connect SDK and from the tag v2.1.0-rc1.

BR,

Maria

HI Maria - Doing a search in VS Code for "dhrishi" in my codebase reveals the following places where it is sprinkled around the code and guides/docs. I am using v2.0.2 of NRF Connect which was released on July 27 2022.

I can confirm that changing the URL from dhrishi ==> project-chip works, so thanks for that.

Hello Dan,

[quote user=""]The URL provided in the Matter samples for generating a QR code stopped working:[/quote]

I could not find any Matter samples in nRF Connect SDK (v2.0.2) which included this link. Could you please specify which sample you are looking at?

This blogpost from december 2020 includes a link to the same github.io as you mentioned. Could it be the sample you are referencing? The same post also contains a link to Matter's guide for using CLI with nRF Connect samples. The URL for the github.io displaying your QR code has been changed in a commit from July 19th this year. The new url substitutes dhrishi with project-chip. I tested the substitution, and a QR code was displayed.

[quote user=""]someone might want to take a look and figure out why the QR code generator at the github.io site stopped working.[/quote]

The original repository is likely removed, resulting in the 404 error. Using the substitution above will lead you to an existing github.io.

Best Regards,

Maria
