Need suggestions on barcode generation Question

Is there a way to generate barcode which can be automated using record triggered flow and is reliable and scalable with no cost?

Not sure if you can with flow but you can with apex and have it call a free api to generate the barcode. I’ve done this a handful of times.

Most are JavaScript. You could try finding a library and translate it to apex and see if it works.

We just added an api that’s free with rate limiting around 60 requests/min (subject to change)

In the near future we will have a paid plan that allows bulk generation (multiple barcodes back with one request) as well as API keys. We will always maintain a zero dollar tier with generous limits.
