Hi Thuan,
Forms page cannot conclude with a random generated QR code, so you’re likely looking for the submitter to receive the QR code or random number on their mobile phone- right?
Firstly, if feasible, display a QR code for the forms page instead of sharing iPads. Visitors can scan the QR code using their mobile to get to the Forms page and submit. This avoids physical contact. Additionally, keep a tiny url (that redirects to Forms page) printed as well below the QR code, in case the QR scanning doesn’t work.
Secondly, as RobElliott mentioned, there are premium connectors in Power Automate that can trigger SMS (ex: Twilio connector). Optionally, have Power Automate save the responses to a SharePoint file, and security guards can search the file by “name” when the submitter walks in. If you deploy a front-end Power Apps page, security guards can search the submitter by name in that page.
