Overview

Generate retail and logistics barcodes in bulk — EAN-13, UPC-A, Code128, ITF-14, Code39, QR, Data Matrix and more — as PNG or SVG with checksum validation and human-readable text. One barcode image per value, ready for labels and inventory.

Barcode Generator input — configure the options in the Apify Console

What it does

Supports 12+ symbologies (Code128, EAN-13/8, UPC-A/E, ITF-14, Code39/93, Codabar, QR, Data Matrix, PDF417).
PNG or SVG output, adjustable scale and bar height.
Validates the value for the chosen symbology (checksum/length) and flags invalid ones.
Optional human-readable text under the bars.

Use cases

Retail & e-commerce — generate product barcodes per SKU.
Warehouse & logistics — carton/pallet labels (ITF-14, Code128).
Asset tracking — Code39/Data-Matrix tags in bulk.

Input

{ "values": ["5901234123457", "012345678905"], "symbology": "ean13", "format": "png", "scale": 3, "height": 12, "includeText": true }

Field	Type	Description
`values`	array	Codes/numbers to encode — one image per entry.
`symbology`	string	Barcode type (Code128, EAN-13, UPC-A, ITF-14…).
`format`	string	`png` or `svg`.
`scale`	integer	Pixel scale factor.
`height`	integer	Bar height (mm).
`includeText`	boolean	Print the value under the barcode.

Output

Barcode Generator output — the results as a clean dataset

{ "value": "5901234123457", "symbology": "ean13", "valid": true, "imageUrl": "https://api.apify.com/v2/key-value-stores/.../records/barcode-0001.png" }

Output schema

Field	Type	Description
`value`	string	The encoded value.
`symbology`	string	The barcode type used.
`valid`	boolean	Whether the value was valid for that symbology.
`imageUrl`	string (URL)	Link to the barcode image in your key-value store.

FAQ

Why is a value marked invalid? EAN/UPC require an exact digit count and a correct checksum — those are flagged rather than producing a wrong barcode.

Can I automate it? Yes — via integrations on the Apify platform and the Apify API.

Notes

Original clean-room implementation.
