Hello everyone and welcome to my blog. In today’s blog I will discuss about a Power app feature to make phone calls directly from your canvas app.
I have a simple Contact list gallery as show in the below screenshot. The idea is to make a phone call directly when clicked on the Phone icon beside the mobile number.
When I got this requirement, I thought it’s going to be a really challenging thing. Rather it turned out to be pretty simple.
To open the Phone number, all you need to do is call the Launch function of Power Apps with the below format.
Launch("tel://{phone number}");For this example, OnSelect of the Phone icon, I used the below formula.
When I do this from my Phone, this is the below behavior. I have multiple Phone apps and hence I get a choice. If you have one phone app, it shall open up automatically.
Turned out to be rather easy than I expected.
Hope this helped. You will also like the below posts.
