In a SharePoint list (M365), I have a people column. Even though the contact information is already included in the people column, users still want it displayed as separate columns. I used JSON formatting to grab the email address using [$ContactPerson.email] but I cannot figure out how to grab the phone number. I tried [$ContactPerson.businessphones], .telephonenumber, .phones but didn't work.
As a work around, I just used Power Apps and default value:
Substitute(Substitute(Substitute(First(Office365Users.UserProfileV2(DataCardValue2.Selected.Email).businessPhones).Value, "(", ""), ")", ""), " ", "-")
Here's the code, I'd like to change the @currentField in line 22 to grab the phone# from [$ContactPerson].
{
"$schema": "https://developer.microsoft.com/json-schemas/sp/v2/column-formatting.schema.json",
"elmType": "div",
"children": [
{
"elmType": "span",
"style": {
"display": "block",
"color": "#333333",
"text-align": "left",
"font-size": "16px",
"font-weight": "bold",
"padding-top": "10px",
"padding": "0 4px"
},
"attributes": {
"iconName": "Phone"
}
},
{
"elmType": "a",
"txtContent": "@currentField",
"attributes": {
"target": "_blank",
"href": "='https://teams.microsoft.com/l/call/0/0?users=' + [$ContactPerson.email]"
}
}
]
}

@Tamras1972 Unfortunately, SharePoint JSON formatting does not support fetching phone number of users from person or group columns. It only supports below properties(with example values):
{
"id": "122",
"title": "Kalya Tucker",
"email": "email address removed for privacy reasons",
"sip": "email address removed for privacy reasons",
"picture": "https://contoso.sharepoint.com/kaylat_contoso_com_MThumb.jpg?t=63576928822",
"department":"Human Resources",
"jobTitle":"HR Manager"
}
So, try this:
{
"$schema": "https://developer.microsoft.com/json-schemas/sp/v2/column-formatting.schema.json",
"elmType": "div",
"children": [
{
"elmType": "span",
"style": {
"display": "block",
"color": "#333333",
"text-align": "left",
"font-size": "16px",
"font-weight": "bold",
"padding-top": "10px",
"padding": "0 4px"
},
"attributes": {
"iconName": "Phone"
}
},
{
"elmType": "a",
"txtContent": "@currentField",
"attributes": {
"target": "_blank",
"href": "='https://teams.microsoft.com/l/call/0/0?users=' + @currentField"
}
}
]
}
