SUPPORTED OPERATIONAL INTERFACES

Plug-In, REST API, SAP Gateway API
Note: Although the event is not supported for all interfaces, the act of saving the images in long term storage is natively supported by RaPTr Server.

DESCRIPTION

Following a barcode read event, RaPTr Scanner will save a copy of the image used to decode the barcode to its local file system. If configured to do so, RaPTr Scanner will forward that image to RaPTr Server so that it can be saved to long-term storage. Optionally, the image can be used for custom functions via the supported interfaces. Included in the Barcode Image Event is a message ID that matches the message ID in the Barcode Read Event message that triggered the process. After all actions have been taken, RaPTr Server communicates to RaPTr Scanner that a successful transaction has occurred and RaPTr Scanner can delete its local copy. It does this by returning much of the same contents as the Barcode Image Event message.

Note: Uploading the image from RaPTr Scanner to RaPTr Server is not instantaneous and may lag the Barcode Read Event by several seconds, or in some cases, minutes.
