No QR or Setup Code on Nest Cam with Floodlights.I had installed my flood light camera by electrician. Once he had installed he had throw away QR code sticker.Now I have change my internet company and looking for QR code or activate code on back of flood light camera>i do not see that.
I looked everywhere on the camera and no 6 digit code. I spent an hour with support for them to tell me my $250 camera is worthless now.

Unfortunately, you need the QR code or setup key to add it to the app. The QR code would've been on a sticker that would have been affixed to the front lens of the camera. If that sticker was thrown away, then you’ll need the setup key that is physically printed on the bottom of the camera itself.

Didn't I say the QR code was gone? Google support is trash.

You have to unplug the power connector and lift the white strip to be able to see the code.

There SHOULD BE a 6-character alphanumeric Setup Code on the BOTTOM of the battery camera and the floodlight camera. You will probably have to dismount it in order to read it.
See the video on the page below, starting at about 1:20; the size and color of the code are exaggerated in the video:
