Tools
| Tool | Description | Behaviour |
|---|---|---|
| barcode_png | Generate a single barcode as a PNG image (Code 128, QR, DataMatrix, EAN-13, UPC-A, PDF417 and more). For a full label with text and layout, write ZPL and use zpl_preview instead. | Read-only |
| barcode_verify | Decode barcodes from a photo or scan of a PRINTED label (PNG, JPEG, BMP or GIF) and report what a software decoder reads back. Honest by design: 'read' does not guarantee every handheld scanner will read it, and 'not read' does not condemn the label (photo angle/focus matter) — the response says so. | Read-only |
| bulk_list | List your recent bulk jobs (id, state, error class, timestamps), newest first. Useful to recover a lost job id; details via bulk_status. | Read-only |
| bulk_status | Status of one bulk job you own: state, attempt count and — when finished — the summary with produced count and per-row failures (row number + reason; failed rows never block the rest). Finished outputs stay downloadable for 7 days via the REST endpoint the response names. | Read-only |
| bulk_submit | Submit a bulk label production job: one ZPL template with {{variable}} placeholders plus data rows (one object per label). Requires an API key whose plan includes bulk jobs. Quota is charged UPFRONT, one operation per row, and failed rows are not refunded; rows per job are capped by plan. Returns the job id — check bulk_status (small jobs usually finish within seconds). | Changes data |
| convert_zpl_dpi | Rescale ZPL between printer resolutions (203/300/600 DPI): coordinates, fonts, barcode module width and label size are scaled. Embedded ^GF/~DG image data is NOT scaled; the response says so instead of silently passing it through. | Read-only |
| cpcl_preview | Render CPCL label code and return a PNG preview. The preview assumes 203 dpi and is an interpretation of the CPCL manual covering a core command subset — no physical printer validation. `labels` in the response is the TOTAL number of labels the stream prints (a stream may contain several, each ended by `PRINT`); pass `index` to render a different one. | Read-only |
| cpcl_validate | Lint CPCL label code and return positioned findings with severity as JSON. Checks the command set Labelixa implements from the CPCL manual — a clean result is not a guarantee that a specific printer accepts the job. Run this before cpcl_preview; if you are not sure which language the code is, call language_detect first. | Read-only |
| epl_preview | Render EPL/EPL2 label code and return a PNG preview. The preview assumes 203 dpi and is an interpretation of the EPL2 manual covering a core command subset — no physical printer validation. `labels` in the response is the TOTAL number of labels the stream prints (a stream may contain several, each ended by `P`); pass `index` to render a different one. | Read-only |
| epl_validate | Lint EPL/EPL2 label code and return positioned findings with severity as JSON. Checks the command set Labelixa implements from the EPL2 manual — a clean result is not a guarantee that a specific printer accepts the job. Run this before epl_preview; if you are not sure which language the code is, call language_detect first. | Read-only |
| explain_zpl | Full health report for a ZPL label: sectioned findings (syntax, size/DPI, orientation, barcodes, fonts, graphics memory, job behaviour) with an honest score — sections that cannot be assessed say so and are excluded from the score. | Read-only |
| image_to_zpl | Convert an image (PNG, JPEG, BMP or GIF, max 200 KB) to a ZPL ^GF graphic command. Returns the ZPL plus measured dimensions and the physical print size at the chosen density. PDF input is REST-only (/v1/graphics). | Read-only |
| language_detect | Detect which printer language raw label code is written in (ZPL, EPL, TSPL or CPCL). Heuristic: returns the language plus a confidence TIER (high/medium/low) and signal codes — not a probability. | Read-only |
| template_get | Fetch one catalog template: metadata, preview image URL and — for non-premium templates — the ZPL source, ready for zpl_preview. Premium templates return metadata for everyone; their ZPL source requires an API key whose plan includes the premium-template feature (same rule as the website). | Read-only |
| template_list | List Labelixa's first-party label template catalog: id, English name, category, size/density and tags. Read-only product content (no tenant data). Fetch one with template_get; render its ZPL with zpl_preview. | Read-only |
| tspl_preview | Render TSPL/TSPL2 label code and return a PNG preview. The preview assumes 203 dpi and is an interpretation of the TSPL manual covering a core command subset — no physical printer validation. `labels` in the response is the TOTAL number of labels the stream prints (a stream may contain several, each ended by `PRINT`); pass `index` to render a different one. | Read-only |
| tspl_validate | Lint TSPL/TSPL2 label code and return positioned findings with severity as JSON. Checks the command set Labelixa implements from the TSPL2 manual — a clean result is not a guarantee that a specific printer accepts the job. Run this before tspl_preview; if you are not sure which language the code is, call language_detect first. | Read-only |
| zpl_command_help | Explain a single ZPL command: syntax, parameters with types/ranges/options, a fragment example and whether the Labelixa renderer draws it. Data comes from the same catalog that powers the public command reference pages. | Read-only |
| zpl_compatibility | Compatibility RISK analysis of ZPL code against a specific printer model, given as manufacturer/model (e.g. 'zebra/zd421'). NOT an emulator and never says 'it works': reports the model's language posture with evidence level and size-rule findings. | Read-only |
| zpl_preview | Render ZPL label code and return the label as a PNG image. Use this to SEE what ZPL output looks like — LLMs can write ZPL but cannot otherwise verify the visual result. One call renders one label (use `index` to pick a label from a multi-label stream). The result also carries an 'Open this label in the Labelixa editor' link the user can click to edit, save or share the label. | Read-only |
| zpl_validate | Lint ZPL code and return structured diagnostics: unknown commands, missing ^FS, out-of-range parameters, fields outside the label boundary. Run this before zpl_preview when generating ZPL. | Read-only |
