@GisbertWhile we have the ability to share maps via QR. provided we have an access to online storage location, we don't neccesarily have readt access to that funtion  when sharing maps. We have to designate and generate the QR code ourselves.
Having ArcPro automatically generate a QR as part of the regular part of the layout, and storing the pdf version in AGOL or ArcGIS Server location.

CalTopo has this feature and working with other people I have found it a very useful feature of their standard layout. The user doesn’t need to even provide a file path or storage location. The software handles it. 
The lack of QR codes or readily available storage location that works in a multi-agency environment, means having the software generate the QR code and designate where it’s stored online and easily facilitates sharing and simplifies the process for users.

@Scott_McGee Awesome, thanks for digging into this!

There's still some strangeness, but I can work with it.  With %26center=-88,46%26level=16, it just zooms into the center of the map to that scale level.  It doesn't seem to recognize the 'center' parameter by itself.  The 'find' parameter works and zooms to the correct coordinates, but I think the find tool itself zooms to a specific scale level, so then it ignores the 'level' parameter.

I appreciate your help!  Thank you!
