Not sure which Scandit product fits your use case?

Install our data-capture-sdk skill so your coding agent can answer questions about Scandit products and recommend the right one for your use case, directly from your editor. More info →

Run this in a terminal in your project directory, then follow the instructions to select your coding agent.

npx skills add https://github.com/scandit/skills --skill data-capture-sdk

Your coding agent loads the skill automatically based on your prompt; to invoke it explicitly, call /data-capture-sdk followed by your task.

Configuring the Task Management Workflow

Configure the Task Management workflow in the Scandit Express dashboard to help users efficiently manage tasks related to product recalls.

The configuration can only be done via the Code Editor in the Advanced section of the dashboard:

Code Editor

Configuration Options​

The Task Management workflow can be configured using the following options:

OptionDescriptionExample Value
typeThe type of workflow. This should always be set to taskManagement.taskManagement
labelCaptureSettingsSettings for label capture, including the fields to capture and their validation rules.JSON, see example below
taskGenericKeysAn array of generic keys that can be used in task prompts.["key1", "key2"]
taskFieldThe field you want to consider for taking decisions about leaving on the shelf or not.taskField

Each taskField object must include the following properties:

  • name: The name of the field to capture (This should find a match the labelCaptureSettings.labelDefinitions.fields[i].name).
  • inListValue: String to be shown if the scanned label is in the expected list.
  • notInListValue: String to be shown if the scanned label is not in the expected list.
