Barcode scan for info only

AppSheet AppSheet Q&A

Hi, I just want a simple app where I can scan a product barcode and info about that product is displayed e.g. pic, name, details, brand etc. Just simple scan/read only app, no manual entry/editing of anything scanned. What is the easiest way to set this up please? Once scanned it should show info for only that product.

Thanks

Hi @Naghman_Khan. Check out this sample app that is pretty close to what you want (on the web you’ll need to type in the product id instead of scanning. Try typing “blue pen”.) https://www.appsheet.com/samples/Scan-a-barcode-to-find-out-all-the-details-of-an-item?appGuidString=87c05a28-539d-40b8-ab52-2259ec5bb925

@tony thanks the main thing i need is to view some data/image about the thing scanned? The example you sent only scans then records timestamp but does not show any data in the app?

@Naghman_Khan Whoops! I sent the wrong sample app. This is the one I intended: https://www.appsheet.com/samples/Scan-a-barcode-to-find-out-all-the-details-of-an-item?appGuidString=87c05a28-539d-40b8-ab52-2259ec5bb925

Hi, this app does exactly what i need but can’t look under the hood or copy. I know there are 2 tables but struggling to get to the detailed view.Any suggestions how this was achieved?
