Good way within PlayFab to implement lookup tables?

Hello!

I'm working on a project using PlayFab as a backend. We will have physical items being sold in stores, with QR codes to claim the digital version of the item through our app.

We are using PlayFab coupons to handle claiming catalog items from a user data perspective. However, we had physical QR codes assigned before we started using PlayFab. So we have multiple formats of the codes, and different use cases for retrieving all of the data we need.

While the PlayFab API will solve the problem of unique coupon claiming for us, we still need a way to implement a lookup table to get the current PlayFab coupon from the older QR codes which were not aware of the coupon system.

Is there a good way through PlayFab to implement such a table? We need to be able to have tens of thousands of entries at least, with the ability to modify and add entries.

Is this something where we would just host such logic on another external resource and access it through PlayFab Cloud Script, or is there a good way to do something like this within the PlayFab environment?

Sorry, there’s not any good way throng PlayFab to implement such a table. There is no any feature or API that PlayFab provides to modify or add coupons. It’s good to host these logic on another external resources.
