Phone Call Link in SharePoint View/Column Formatting

Does anyone know of a way (or a workaround) to get tel:123-456-7890 links working in view/column formatting?   This would be very helpful for showing contact links with "click to call" on mobile.  ...

    waldek, Mike Hatheway Unfortunately, no. In List Formatting, link protocols are whitelisted and only http, https, mailto, and relative links (start with /) are allowed. All other href values won't be rendered. :sad:

Mike Hatheway theChrisKent sounds like something that could be solved using a list formatter. Do you have any pointers that could help Mike?

    Thanks theChrisKent 

    If anyone sees this change, please let me know.

    I have a client that loves this "mobile card view" we built for thier contacts, but "phone" links would take it to the next level.

     

    Cheers!
