Hello,

Is it possible to read a barcode using a Windows OS device? We know this feature is available via a mobile, iOS or Android, device however we want to be able to use a handheld scanner with Windows tablets on our shop floor to scan barcodesΒ that populate as β€œtext” in Smartsheet.

Thanks much!

    It should be possible as long as you get the correct drivers, actually the barcode scanners is almost like a keyboard, it will read the image, translate to text and send it as text, I have implemented this solution under different environments and technically it is possible.

    Regards
