Creating Hyperlink for Microsoft Teams call dynamically

I wish to provide a series of Teams-Hyperlinks to my colleague where by on clicking them, the Microsoft-Teams opens and a call is directly placed to a call-recipient. I have the ID/Phone number of my colleague and the list of the Phone-numbers of the all the call-recipients.

 

Let me take a small detour and explain it giving an example of Google:

 

With the Latitude/Longitude of the Origin and Destination known, the dynamic Google Hyperlinks can be created and on clicking those links one can directly open the Navigation application of Google between those points. It follows the following format:

https://www.google.com/maps/dir/Latitude_Origin,Longitude_Origin/Latitude_Destination,Longitude_Destination

Let's say the Origin is Frankfurt and Destination is Berlin and their respective Latitude/Longitude are as follows:

Frankfurt (Lat/Lon): (50.11544,8.69762)
Berlin (Lat/Lon): (52.47790,13.33385)

By adding Latitude/Longitude in the format mentioned above, the Hyperlink to navigate between Frankfurt and Berlin can be created:

https://www.google.com/maps/dir/50.11544,8.69762/52.4779,13.33385

 

In the same way I wish to do this for Microsoft-Teams, whereby I could create a dynamic Hyperlink. I know the ID/Phone-number of my colleague and I have the list of the phone numbers of all call recepients. The HyperLink for a Teams call looks like this, which has been created directly from Microsoft-Teams:

Just as one can create a navigation link in Google dynamically, how can I create such a link for Microsoft-Teams? What's the format of the Microsoft-Teams Hyperlink

 

https://teams.microsoft.com/l/meetup-join/...Something_like_ID_of_Caller..../...Recipient_phone_number......

Ultimately, I need to provide these Hyperlinks inside Tableau visualization Software, so that on clicking these Hyperlinks one can directly make a call to the customer/recipient, instead of opening Microsoft-Teams and manually typing the phone number.

 

Does anyone have an idea how to address this issue?
