# Control add-in "BarcodeScannerProviderAddIn"

> Control add-in "BarcodeScannerProviderAddIn" in System Application (System.Device). 2 public procedures. Introduced in BC24, still in BC30.

System Application · System.Device · BC24-30 · [source at ea08af5e](https://github.com/microsoft/BCApps/blob/ea08af5ef2d6a9b5c5af4a029288abbe2c883220/src/System%20Application/App/ControlAddIns/src/BarcodeScannerProviderAddIn.ControlAddIn.al) · facts from BC29

## Procedures

- `RequestBarcodeScannerAsync()`: This method is used to request the barcode scanner.
- `RequestBarcodeScannerAsync(IntentAction: Text; IntentCategory: Text; DataString: Text; DataFormat: Text)`: This method is used to request the barcode scanner.

## Called by

From the extracted call graph of BC29 (graphify-al on the snapshot checkout): calls whose target is known from a declared type or an `Object::"Name"` argument. Interface dispatch and calls through events are not counted, so the list is not complete.

- [Page 7388 "Scan Warehouse Activity Line"](../page/7388.md) (1 call: `RequestBarcodeScannerAsync → RequestBarcodeScannerAsync`)

## Across versions

- Present in: BC24-30
- Changed (declaration) in: none

Source: AL metadata extracted from the code (names, ids, signatures, properties); no code bodies (D10).

## Ask your agent

Procedure bodies are not stored here (D10). The call sections above are our own, per object, from the BC29 call graph. For a procedure body or the calls of one procedure, ask bc-code-atlas (external, by Stefan Maron, MIT; default corpus w1-28), which the bc-observatory plugin connects: `bcatlas_resolve_node(object_type: "controladdin", object_name: "BarcodeScannerProviderAddIn")`, then `bcatlas_get_procedure_body` or `bcatlas_get_neighbors` on the returned id.
