Barcode/QR Code Scanner
We have two types of code scanner available:
Barcode scanner
QR Code scanner
Barcode Scanner
The barcode scanner feature in NotionApps allows users to scan barcodes using their device's camera without a manual input for the product ID/SKU. NotionApps provides the ability to scan barcodes through a button in the search bar on list screens (View Items/Update Items).
To enable barcode scanner in the search bar, please follow these steps:
Open your app in the app builder.
Go to the list screen where you want to add the scanner.
In the screen configuration section, click on the "Allow Scan" button.
When a user scans a barcode using the scanner in your app, the scanned data can be used for searching the database. This can be useful for tracking inventory, inputting customer information, and more.
The barcode scanner only works on mobile devices. On desktop, you will get a fixed text "ABCD123456789"
QR Code scanner
QR code scanner works in a similar way as the barcode scanner. When you enable the Show Scanner toggle, you can select the type of scanner as QR Code to allow the scanner to scan QR codes.
