power bi

Hey takeshi98rr,

• Power BI visuals don’t currently support tel: links to trigger calls directly in the mobile app.

• If critical, consider embedding the report in a Power Apps app — Power Apps supports tel: links and can be integrated with Power BI.

• Another option is adding a button/action in Power Apps instead of relying on Power BI visuals.

1. Embedding Power BI into Power Apps (to enable tel: links)

• Add the Power Apps visual in your Power BI report and pass the phone number field to it.

• In Power Apps, use Launch("tel:" & PhoneNumber) (or tel:// for iOS if needed) to trigger the dialer.

• When you open the report in the Power BI mobile app, the embedded Power App can handle the phone call action.

2. Using a button/action directly in Power Apps

• Instead of trying to make a Power BI table clickable, build a simple Power App screen with a list or buttons of phone numbers.

• Each button’s OnSelect can run Launch("tel:" & ThisItem.Number).

• You can embed this app alongside your Power BI dashboard, or link out to it.
