Shopify Email templates add barcode (UPC)

In shopify admin panel ( settings > notifications > Email templates ) it allows you to edit the email sent to my distributor with order information on it like : address, price and the SKU to send that customer. I am trying to add the Barcode UPC to the email template as well.

This is the .liquid code for the SKU

 (sku: {{ line.sku }})

Here is a link to the email variable reference guide but I cant find one for the barcode, any ideas?

We can simply add this code to show the barcode in the email template:

{% if line.variant.barcode != blank %}
   <span class="order-list__item-variant">Barcode: {{ line.variant.barcode }}</span>
{% endif %}

Under:

{% for line in subtotal_line_items %}

So, It should look like:

{% for line in subtotal_line_items %}
    <!-- Some Code -->
    
    {% if line.variant.barcode != blank %}
        <span class="order-list__item-variant">Barcode: {{ line.variant.barcode }}</span>
    {% endif %}

    <!-- Some Code -->
{% endfor %}

You could store the upc in an unused product field (e.g. vendor) and then output this field in your email template {{ line.vendor }}.

If there are no unused fields available then you can store the upc in a metafield and output this metafield in your email template:

{{line.product.metafields.some_namespace.your_key}}

Here is the documentation for metafields: metafields

Where is the upc currently stored?

So, one of the options would be to set a cart attribute, which you could then output in the email.

Here's a link to setting cart attributes, but in your case you'd probably want the input to be hidden (since the customer doesn't need to type anything in).

It's a bit of a hack, but the alternative is using an app with a webhook to generate a UPC and send it.
