I am trying to update our inventory system to Smartsheets and I want to take a picture of a Barcode and instead of geting the picture of the Bar Code I am getting just the numbers. How can I go about fixing this?
Hi Justin,
iOS or Android? On iOS, there are two choices, a barcode scan or camera.
I hope this helps you!

Andree,
I am using an iOS system. I have tried using both and only the camera feature works.
I would prefer to use the Barcode scan instead any thoughts?
Where in the sheet are you when you're trying to take a photo of the barcode?
on the desk in my office. I am working on a demo to make sure it is going to work before i label the boxes
I meant on the Smartsheet sheet, which cell, column type and so on. Maybe it isn't working because what you're trying isn't supported.
I am in the barcode tab
The only thing is that the barcode does have letters in it as well. Does that matter or will that work and also is there specific types of barcode fonts that can be used?
No that doesn't matter because it scans the letters also. Can you take a screenshot and share with me so that I can see where you are trying to take a photo?
Here you have what codes that are supported: https://help.smartsheet.com/articles/2476211-using-the-smartsheet-app-for-ios#scanbarcodes
Here is the screenshot of where I am trying to place the barcode.
Strange, it works for me. Can you share the sheet or make a copy of it and share that?
I just sent you the share of the copy of the sheet for you to review for me and to see what I might be doing wrong
Thanks!
I tried all the options, and it works for me. Can you try with another barcode to see if that works and can you also take a picture of the barcode that isn't working?
I tried a different bar code and got the same results.
I have attached a copy of the barcode that is not working.
You did this as a picture not the barcode scan which is what I was trying to do on the app itself.
Is that the only thing that is working currently on the app the picture version
I tried all the options. I'll upload how it looks on my side on my iPhone. Can you check if you see something that's not the same for you?
Sure.
Please let me know when you have uploaded.
Thanks
I have provisional users who, under the legacy model, were unlicensed users with editing permissions for workspaces. I’ve now changed their role to "viewers" and assigned editing permissions to specific workspaces, aiming to maintain the same editing experience as before. However, they cannot edit fields within tasks or…
I'm trying to figure out how to delete an inactive Smartsheet account so I can use that email address for another account. The account I'm trying to delete was a free account with no system admin, so there's no one to contact. The AI bot with the Help Center told me my only option was to use the Smartsheet Community. Any…
Hi- We have been using a SmartSheet Form for a while, and users have been able to enter 000-000-0000 if they don't know a person's phone number. However, over the past few days, it appears that the phone number validation field will not allow all zeros any more. Is there a way that I can change this? We would like the…
