Using REST API for Barcode Generation and Recognition

Saaspose.Barcode is a cloud-based API: all you need to do to use it is register and get an app key and SID. These give you access to Saaspose’s code storage and all of Saaspose.Barcode’s methods for generating and recognizing barcodes. It is easy to learn, whatever platform and language you’re used to. All the API’s features are exposed as unique REST URIs that you can access either directly or through an SDK. Accessing the API directly, or using a native REST client, is more flexible because it allows you to construct requests and responses any way you want. SDKs are wrappers to the API that give you an easy-to-use interface for programming barcode recognition and generation with Saaspose.Barcode.

Supported languages Supported SDKs

  • .NET (C#, VB.NET, J#)
  • Java
  • PHP
  • Ruby
  • Python
  • JavaScript
  • JQuery
  • Objective-C
