barcode scanner

How can I connect the barcode scanner to the scanning device, just like supermarket scanning, instead of connecting to an Android or IOS device. Or where can I find such information?

Hardware barcode scanners are another input, just like a keyboard. What you do is not have them scan to the barcode scanner control, but rather a standard text field. You can then trigger the on change property to do something with the value scanned

One thing to be aware of, the change property only fires when you click enter or tab out of the field. But if you use common scanners like zebra and symbol, there is a setting you can turn on in the scanner to hit enter after scanning

Bonjour, 

Je pense avoir la même problématique. 

Nous sommes en train de créer un power apps pour faire de la gestion de stocks en scannant des QR codes.

Nous aimerions utiliser un terminal mobile android pour le faire. Seulement, ce n'est pas une caméra qui lit les QR codes sur le terminal. C'est un scanner laser. Est-ce possible de tirer une valeur du scanner laser avec power apps ?

Je remets, en pièce jointe, une photo du message d'erreur qui s'affiche lorsque je veux scanner avec power apps sur le terminal.

Hi, I can't understand how would you add the scanned value to the Text label. Right now I do it with the scanner control if I would delete that control how can I make the Value of the scanned thing go to the Text property of the label?
