The PI Web API is a RESTful interface to the PI system. It gives client applications read and write access to their AF and PI data over HTTPS.
Your application can process the QR code information and send the information to pull the relevant details from the PI System.

Re: Inventory management with QR codes
1 of 1 people found this helpfulI created an application that uses QR codes with the ZXing.Net library. There are some demos you can look at if you clone the source code. The library is available as a Nuget package.

1 of 1 people found this helpfulHere is the PI Web API client library for .NET Framework which you can use.
List of client libraries in other languages: PI Web API 2018 client libraries are published!!
I would still recommend PI Web API as the data access layer to the PI System if the application can send and receive HTTPS messages.
Could you let us know the architecture you are targeting ?

Re: Inventory management with QR codes
Although I am a noob in all these, I have some experience with Python. So the list was really helpful.
I can't really tell you about the architecture at this point. We haven't even implemented the PI System yet. Will do soon. The application I mentioned is something we are planning to implement by the end of this year, at least the POC. So I am just doing my research to find directions.
