    Issue with Barcode Scanning on Android in Snap: Value Resets Before Updating Textbox Solved

    Hi everyone, I'm working on an application using Snap that involves scanning QR codes. The goal is to check if a scanned QR code matches a predefined value and then use that value to update a global variable via a textbox. This approach is working well on iOS, but I'm encountering an issue on Android where the scanned value seems to reset before it can be applied to the textbox. Does anyone have suggestions on how to address this problem? I suspect it might be related to how barcode scanning and data handling differ between iOS and Android. Here are the steps I've taken so far: Checked the settings of the barcode widget, especially on Android, to ensure they are configured correctly. Experimented with introducing a small delay (e.g., a few hundred milliseconds) after scanning the barcode before setting the textbox value. Used debugging techniques to track the value of the scanned barcode at different stages of the application's workflow. Reviewed event handling to ensure that barcode scanning events are properly sequenced and handled. I would appreciate any insights or suggestions from those who have experience with barcode scanning and app development on Android. Thank you!

    No Data from new Mobicontrol-Blocks in Blockly Solved

    Hi, I am trying to read data from the device with the new Mobicontrol blocks in blockly. For example, I would like to read out the device ID or a custom attribute of the device and use it in the SNAP app. But it doesn't work as expected. No ID is displayed in the text field and also no error is displayed. The script part does not seem to be executed at all. Unfortunately, the SOTI help page does not provide any further information on the new blocks. Best regards Steffen

    Set Column width of table widget Solved

    Hi, I use a table widget to display data (RESTAPI with blockly). Is it possible to set the column width of the table widget when filling it? The columns are always the same width by default. However, the length of the data is different. For example the second column does not show the whole Data.

    Connect SOTI Snap App to Power BI via Rest API

    Hello everyone, In order to create reports and dashboards from the data collected in a Snap App, I would like to access it via the Rest API with Power Bi. However, I am having problems configuring the API call in MS Power BI. Have any of you done this before and can give me a tip on how to proceed? Many thanks for your tips in advance! OK - i made some progress.  Do any of you know where I can find the entryID? Do you know how I can design the query so that I can query all database entries, because I would ultimately like to compile a report from them

    User-Authentication should be implemented to access sensitive data

    Hello community, I am looking for a solution for an application. Here's what I want to achieve: in a Snap App, the user should first log in. For this, he should scan his ID card (which has a barcode). The scanned barcode should now be linked to a permission link to a folder stored on a OneDrive drive. In this folder, there are partially sensitive data that should be displayed on the tablet running the app. This concerns a process in the food industry. In our country, businesses processing food are sporadically and without prior notice inspected by veterinary offices or similar authorities. As part of the inspection, on-site employees must, among other things, present their health certificates. These data should be made available through the above-mentioned folder structures and protected through authentication. Has any of you ever implemented a similar requirement and can give me a tip on how to reference the correct folder via authentication data? I am already grateful for any advice!

    How do I get my DeviceID in SOTI SNAP to use it for a REST API? Solved

    Hello, I'm very new to Snap and programmed an app to send a damage report from a device via mail (SNAP LINK). Everything works so far but I want to send the (MobiControl) Device Name because it includes the username and company internal user ID. To do so, I'm using a Rest API command. But to start the command, I need the deviceID of the device in use. So is there a way to automaticly fill in the deviceID on each device? Thanks in advance for any help or redirect to a fitting discussion.
