Scan Principles

Scan Strategies

In our Ticket Scan API you are able to use different strategies:

Scan Locally

Scan locally (within your application) and sync afterwards. In this case you can use the following endpoints (in the given order):

  • Get Barcodes (in paginated pages with barcodes.)
  • Post Upload
  • Get Barcodes (with the X-COMPARE-TIMESTAMP header to retrieve the difference only.)

πŸ“˜

Note:

syncing is important for the statistics within the dashboard to give you the correct analytics and insights.

Scan Direct

Scan direct on our servers. In this case you can use the following endpoints:

  • Post Checkin
  • Post Checkout
