I would like to propose a new feature for Novacura Flow: the capability to read NFC tags directly within the platform. This functionality would allow information embedded in an NFC tag to be retrieved and utilized in an event step, streamlining workflow and enhancing user experience. Currently, our only option that I know of is to resort to NFC keyboards, which would be cumbersome and disrupts the workflow. With direct NFC integration in Novacura Flow, users could effortlessly tap an NFC tag against their device, significantly improving the overall user experience.

Our specific use case involves Electronic Shelf Labels (ESL) in retail environments, where NFC is used to read the ID of each label. Currently, we are unable to use Novacura Flow to develop an application to manage our ESLs due to the lack of NFC support. This has forced us to rely on another platform for this purpose, which is less efficient and cohesive for our operations.

I believe that incorporating NFC functionality would be a logical and beneficial advancement for Novacura Flow. It would address current user needs, such as ours in the retail sector with ESLs, and expand the platform's applicability.

I have found more cases with the need for NFC in flow, but no solution so far. This is one exampel: https://forum.novacura.com/t/nfc-reader-in-flow/378/2
