What the Permission Set Includes

The Barcode & QR Code Permissions permission set gives users:

  • Access to the Barcode and QR Code Generator app and its Home, Barcode Configs and Bulk Barcode Generator tabs.
  • Create, read, edit and delete access to Barcode Config records.
  • Access to the Apex classes behind the components, the Bulk Barcode Generator, and the six Barcode Flow actions.
  • Access to the barcode image and PDF Visualforce pages.

Users also need read access to the object and field configured in a Barcode Config. To generate barcode files with Flow or Apex, they need permission to create Salesforce Files and, for attached files, access to the target record.

Tip: The Barcode actions check the running user’s access to Barcode Configs and to the source record and field. Assign the permission set to every user who runs a Flow or Apex automation that uses them, including users whose record changes start a record-triggered Flow.


By following these steps, you can ensure that the right users have the necessary permissions to utilize the barcode and QR code generation features in Salesforce.
