I want to set-up a set of QR codes for public use. Maybe 10 of them. When scanned, I want the URLs to count use of the specific code, then redirect to a common target URL. It would be nice to be able to track the geography of any scans processed.

I've got both Microsoft 365 and Azure accounts. Is there a good approach to doing this with Microsoft tools?

    Hello @Burt Harris , apologies for the delayed response here. Based on your scenario you can explore to trigger based offerings provided by Azure like Azure Web App, Http Triggered Azure Function Apps and HTTP triggered Logic App. You can also explore the option of using Azure APIM to handle redirection to a common target URL.
    You can follow the sample here which utilizes Azure Function and power-app to build a simple QR scanner. Please let me know if there are additional concerns. Thank you!
