Is there a way to use the forms web app to accept barcode scan from a built in iPhone camera?

asked on April 18, 2018

We have a use case I've asked about before but wondering if anyone has a new solution. We want to use a Laserfiche Form field to accept barcode input (NOT using the iOS app). We want to scan an item and have it apply the text from the barcode into a form field. I know it's possible in Safari just don't know how to implement this in forms. The native app is nice but not everyone needs to have it or be trained/licensed to do this task - a simple form would be easier.

This feature was added in Forms 10.x as the application was being upgraded.

It is available on a Single Line Field. Just Check the button. When the field is active it will trigger the camera in the device to scan for a barcode. I am not aware of all of the types of BarCode this accepts so testing or further research would be required

This only works inside the Laserfiche app, not on mobile device browsers.
