Hardware Scanner connected to App & SP list

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 5

I have a Hardware Reader that scans a code and accesses the data from a Database and I have a PowerApps App. In the Database, it accesses 3 columns:
1. The column with the scanned code, called "Nr Card"
2. The column with the unique identifier number called "Nr. Matricol"
3. The column with the name of the Employee called "Title"

I have these columns in the SP list connected to the PowerApps App as well.

When the code is scanned with the Hardware Reader, can I have the PowerApps app to show me directly the data from my SP list connected to the scanned code?

    Yes, there are many different ways to do this but if you just want to see what is scanned setup a form and connect it to the gallery and a form and connect them to the SharePoint list then add a text input field. filter the gallery on the textinput field to the Nr Card in SP. then all should show.
