The best training experience for simulated phishing messages is to make them as close as possible to real phishing attacks that your organization might experience. What if you could capture and use harmless versions of real-world phishing messages that were detected in Microsoft 365 and use them in simulated phishing campaigns? You can, with _payload automations_ (also known as _payload harvesting_). To create payload automations, see [Payload automations for Attack simulation training](attack-simulation-training-payload-automations.md).

Attack simulation training also supports using QR codes in payloads. You can choose from the list of built-in QR code payloads, or you can create custom QR code payloads. For more information, see [QR code payloads in Attack simulation training](attack-simulation-training-payloads.md#qr-code-payloads).

Because QR codes are a different type of a phishing URL, user events around read, delete, compromise, and click events remain the same. For example, scanning the QR code opens the phishing URL, so the event is tracked as a click event. The existing mechanisms for tracking compromise, deletes, and report events remain the same.

In Attack simulation training in Microsoft 365 E5 or Microsoft Defender for Office 365 Plan 2, a _payload_ is the link, QR code (currently in Preview), or attachment in the simulated phishing email message that's presented to users. Attack simulation training offers a robust built-in payload catalog for the available social engineering techniques. However, you might want to create custom payloads that work better for your organization.
