Search GIS Features Using the Barcode Scanner

PREREQUISITES: To search for spatial and non-spatial assets or addresses in the app (both online and offline), you must first set up search functionality for your web map. This is done by configuring which layers and tables are searchable in your ArcGIS Online or ArcGIS Enterprise portal. See Configure feature and table search for maps in the ArcGIS Online documentation for more information.

You can scan linear barcodes or QR codes using the barcode scanner to quickly and accurately search for specific spatial or non-spatial assets.

1. On the top toolbar, tap the Search icon.

2. Tap the Barcode Scanner icon.

A message appears informing you that Trimble Unity Field requires camera access to continue.

3. Tap Continue and accept any other device permissions to allow camera access.
4. Place the linear barcode or QR code inside the viewfinder rectangle to scan it.

If there is more than one result, the results appear in the Assets list. See Select Assets on the Map for more information.

If there is one asset, the Asset Details screen opens. See Asset Details for more information.
