Bulk Label Generation

How to generate labels in bulk

1. Start from a ZPL template and mark the parts that change as {{variables}}.
2. Press Detect variables — the template is scanned and the variable list comes back.
3. Upload your CSV. Header, encoding and delimiter are detected and the first rows are shown, so you confirm the mapping before spending anything.
4. Map each variable to a column, preview, then generate the job and download the result as a ZIP.

When you need this instead of a single label

This is the path for a print run: shipping labels for today's orders, shelf labels for a new price list, asset tags for incoming stock. One template plus one data file replaces hundreds of copy-paste edits. Row counts and error rows are reported, so a bad row becomes visible instead of quietly printed. The same pipeline is available as a REST API (POST /v1/bulk/jobs) when you want it inside your own system.

Common questions

• What happens to rows with missing or invalid data? — They are reported as error rows rather than silently rendered. You see the count before you download, so a missing GTIN does not become a label that looks fine and scans wrong.
• Is my CSV protected against formula injection? — Yes. Values beginning with characters a spreadsheet treats as a formula are neutralised, so a crafted cell cannot execute when the file is reopened in Excel.
• Can I run this from my own software? — Yes. POST /v1/bulk/jobs starts the same kind of job, GET reports its status and .../download returns the ZIP. Bulk generation counts one operation per row and requires a paid plan.
