What program is everyone using to create barcodes or QR codes?

LaurenLong

Hello!

I'm using Smartsheet for event registration. Before the event, each attendee will receive a email from Smartsheet with a barcode (or QR code) that our registration team will scan on the Smartsheet app to easily find the row with that person's info and mark them checked in. This works - but my pain point is generating 1000 barcodes and then putting them inside their cells in Smartsheet is going to take a very long time. Has anyone else done something like this and used some automated barcode maker? I can't find one that will save each image individually as its own file.

For more context- attendees register on a form - I have an autonumber column. Then I have another sheet with the barcodes and an Index Match to pull their email address over beside the barcode for it to send. If I could get just the 1000 barcodes created and saved with the correct file name, I'd be in business.

Thanks for any guidance!

Have you looked through this previous thread? Also @Rich Coles would be a great resource for this type of automation information as well.

Thank you @Michelle Choate! I ended up purchasing them from QR Batch and then manually adding them to cells within a sheet myself. Took a while but it's a solution we can resuse over and over!

Thank you!!
