How to Print Labels with Cloud Data

BY: TRAVIS WAYNE / DATE: 24/06/2021 / TOPICS: LABEL DESIGN, ENTERPRISE LABEL MANAGEMENT, CLOUD LABELING

As the world is becoming increasingly digital, cloud technology is becoming more prevalent in our daily lives and in our companies. People stream their favorite shows through the cloud, facilitate business meetings through the cloud, and share important company files and documents in the cloud. So why not store your barcode data and labels in the cloud, too?

With cloud integration available directly within your labeling software, connecting to cloud data has never been so simple. In this blog, learn how to store and print labels from the cloud using Excel Online, Google Sheets, and OData connections.  

 

Printing Labels with Cloud Data 

 

While remote work is becoming more common, locally saved spreadsheets and label files limit accessibility. Users are limited to the files stored on their computer, creating unnecessary back-and-forth between users who need to edit or share label files and potentially multiple versions of label files. With cloud-based database connections, authorized users who sign into their cloud-based account using a two-factor authentication process can securely access the files they need anywhere in the world with an internet connection, creating a more efficient sharing and collaboration process. 

 

If label files are saved locally and your hardware malfunctions, files may be permanently lost. Having your labels and data stored in the cloud reduces the risk of losing files through automatic backups. 

 

With TEKLYNX label software products, connecting to cloud data is effortless. Label files (LABELVIEW (.lbl) or CODESOFT (.lab)) can be stored in cloud locations such as Google Drive or Microsoft OneDrive. Data sources stored in cloud locations such as Google Sheets, Microsoft Excel Online or OData can be leveraged for use on a label file. Download a free 30 day trial and follow these next steps to learn how to print labels with cloud data from Google Sheets, Excel Online, and OData connections.
