Why is a resolver needed?

Modified on Tue, 20 Aug at 4:07 PM

Without a resolver, a Web address can only ever point to one thing at a time. 
The resolver allows a brand owner to associate multiple resources with a single GS1 identifier. 
It’s what makes it possible to link a single barcode to, say, a patient information leaflet or an instruction manual in different languages, a recall status API and a basic product information page.
