Barcode API Calls

License

The Barcode module requires a separate license to be installed before key parts of the functionality are available. This license is disabled by default. Please contact PCR to obtain a license.

Before the Barcode API calls can be sent, the Barcode module must be activated, and PCR will need to set up a special Event in order to process Barcode Scan Transactions.

Using POST Calls

• POST requests will ignore parameters supplied as a query string and need any additional parameters in the request Body.

• To configure the number of Pages/Results returned by the API (this is most useful for the SQL Endpoint), you can send these as additional Parameter's in the Body.

  Parameter	Data Type	Default	Description
  limit	Interger	20	Number of listings to show.
  page	Interger	1	Page number to show.

• API fields are not case sensitive, and will always be returned in the lower case format.
