Good morning,
Is there a public database of barcodes from a given country?
I need this database for a mobile application where, after scanning the code, a given product appears.

Hi Karolina,

Confirming we do have a local barcode database as part of our API for every of our 56 country datasets. Access is available via the API on a per country basis. You can also test this via our public demo see:

Kind regards,
The FatSecret Platform API Team

I meant a database in the form of some Excel or something similar, where wholesale barcodes are provided - and signed products, for example:

BARCODE - product name - manufacturer's name - calories - macronutrients

Thanks, a static export e.g. excel wouldn't make sense because there are thousands of updates every day and the data would be outdated very quickly hence all data is available via the API
