The Barcode component displays a scannable barcode, which can be used to encode various types of data such as product information or identification numbers.
It supports several barcode types and provides a straightforward way to integrate barcode functionality into your app.
In the form view of a table synced from Google Sheets or Microsoft Excel, select the field type as Barcode.
Choose the type of barcode to be used:
QR Code: A 2D barcode that can store various types of data, including URLs, text, and contact information.
Code 39 A linear barcode that supports alphanumeric characters and a limited set of symbols. Often used in industrial and logistics applications.
Example: A warehouse might use Code 39 to encode a product identifier like A1234B5678.
Code 128: A high-density linear barcode that supports alphanumeric characters and special characters. Used in applications requiring high data capacity.
Example: A shipping label might use Code 128 to encode a shipping number such as 123456789012.
Code 93: An enhanced version of Code 39 that offers higher density and includes additional characters. Used for compact data encoding.
Example: A Code 93 to encode a book's ISBN number like 978-3-16-148410-0.
EAN-93: A variant of EAN-13, used for encoding 13-digit barcodes with additional features. Commonly used in retail.
Example: A retail product might have an EAN-93 barcode like 1234567890123.
EAN-8: A shorter version of EAN-13 used for small packages and products. Encodes 8 digits.
Example: A small product, such as a cosmetics item, might use EAN-8 like 12345678.
JAN: Japanese Article Numbering, similar to EAN but used in Japan. Encodes 8 or 13 digits.
Example: A Japanese product might use JAN to encode 4901234567890.
UPC-E: A compact version of UPC-A, used for small items where space is limited. Encodes 6 digits.
Example: A small grocery item might use UPC-E like 012345.
UPC-A: The standard barcode used in North American retail. Encodes 12 digits and is used for product identification.
Example: A common product might use UPC-A like 012345678912.
Code 11: A linear barcode used mainly in telecommunications for encoding numeric data. Supports digits and some special characters.
Example: A Code 11 to encode a service code like 1234567890.
Set a clear and informative title for the barcode field. Examples include "Product Barcode" or "Inventory Code" to help users identify the purpose of the barcode.
