Barcode Scanner

Barcodes and QR codes can be useful features in many types of apps from social apps like WeChat and Venmo to connect friends together or location-based games like scavenger hunts. The Barcode Scanner component uses the camera to read any barcode or QR code.

The Barcode Scanner is among the easiest components to set-up and use. After adding the component to your app, you can connect it with a button and a label like the blocks below.
Name | Data Type | Data |
value | text | value from scanned barcode/QR code |
type | text | barcode or QR code |
was cancelled | True/False | If user cancelled action, returns true; else returns false |
error | Text | If error, returns error; else returns null |
In most cases you'll use the default
back camera in your mobile device but you also have the option to specify the front camera in certain cases.
