1. Need to create an app to accept lists of barcodes and feed them to this service: [login to view URL] .... then take the resulting data and create Excel compatible files (the files can be CSV, TXT (tab delimited), or Excel... As long as easy to import into excel) 2. the [login to view URL] API has multiple ways to search for data. We will only need to search by the BARCODE call. We will need the app to accept up to 2500 barcodes at a time (any range from 1 to 2500). Ideally, we can upload a CSV file with the barcodes to use in the search (or we can copy/paste a list of barcodes). see attached "sample barcodes list to be used as search [login to view URL]" 3. we will need to be able to set the API key within the app. 4. the [login to view URL] API has limits, so the app will need to call the API and check limits in order to self-regulate it's speed of requesting new data. eg: [login to view URL]**** "remaining_calls_per_month": "4999", "remaining_calls_per_day": "4999", "remaining_calls_per_min": "50" If remaining_calls_per_min = 5 or less, we pause the process for 10 seconds, then check remaining_calls_per_min again. If call per day or month = 5 or less, we stop process and generate spreadsheet with currently collected data. 5. we will only need to search for the Short parameter of the data (this removes all ‘Online Store’ and ‘Review’ results. The API call return is also much quicker.) [login to view URL]*** example of returned data: [login to view URL] see also, attached: "sample data as returned by [login to view URL]" 6. the resulting spreadsheet will need to be formatted into a Spreadsheet that would always be the same column formatting. eg: [login to view URL] and [login to view URL] see attached acceptable examples of output files: "Sample output file - TXT Tab delim [login to view URL]" "Sample output file - CSV [login to view URL]" "Sample output file - Excel [login to view URL]" 7. the final app will need to be either: - a web app installed either on our servers (running PHP MySQL) - or a Windows 8 and newer compatible app

Hi, I am a full stack web developer. I can develop this application for you. It will be a web based app which will allow you to upload a csv of bar codes and than we will communicate with the api to get the information for each bar code. It will also make sure it stays within limits of the api. I've developed web apps without frameworks as well as with frameworks. I have worked with various Web Application frameworks (Laravel, Rails and MEAN Stack). I tend to write good testable code that is easy to maintain and extend. I am new here but you can check my [login to view URL] my projects have 5 star reviews with excellent comments. I don't stop working until my clients are fully happy with the work that i have done.I deliver 110% of what is expected of me. Thanks!

Dear Sir, Good morning. I have read your specification/instruction and I feel confident I am able to do this job. I have previously worked with InterHome for web API calls and data consumption using bar codes & UUID. I can generate the CSV/TSV sheets with the API results. Also, I can actually quee the bar codes to be sent to the API with a timely throttling manner so that the API call doesn't get exhausted and make sure no code request is lost. This will be a PHP/MySQL application and can be locally hosted. Please let me know if you think I am right on track. Regards, Joy
