Hi,
I am building a web application to ease the administrative process of retail industry.
I will have some RFID reader to automate the process, but I can't find anything about the integration of RFID in outsystems.
Do you know how I can do that or if there exists a topic about it?
Regards,
Diogo.
Hi Diogo,
Please let me know what communication method is your RFID reader uses (or share a link of your device). I've made a similar component (althought it was for another use case). It communicated with serial port on the machine and worked great for the solution required by client.
Here's the link to the forge component. It's not very user friendly yet, but does the job, and you can customize is to your needs anyway.

this will be the reader that I will be using. https://www.zebra.com/ap/en/products/rfid/rfid-readers/fx9600.html
This model supports serial communication. You can give it a try if it works for you.
Let me know if you're stuck anywhere on trying out the component, or need any help configuring it.
Diogo, if your RFID module have any way to communicate with internet to send read data you can create an API receiver in OutSystems and get this data in Json and manipulate that more easy.
ok, I am waiting for the components. When they arrive I will try those methods.
