Desktop App: Operation File

The GoToTags Desktop App utilizes operation files to maintain the status of the tag encoding and reading processes. These files are structured in JSON format and designed for internal app use rather than direct viewing. It is recommended that users should access and modify operation files using the Desktop App. When employing operation files as input for the GoToTags Encoding service, users must review and approve the data within the app, ensuring informed consent for the operations.
