Hi,
I have a Flow that creates a Teams Meeting and sends a the join url via a Flow Bot to members of a team. It also sends the same info via a Twilio SMS message. I'm having some difficulty getting the dialin info to show up as a link. Ideally, I would like to see a link show up in the text message like the one below. That way folks on their mobile could click the link and the number would be automatically dialed.
+15556789012,,73702030#
Is there a way to parse the Teams Meeting Invite and create that link in a text message, by chance?
Update: I figured this out via a workaround. Essentially, there is some json available when the Teams Meeting is created (onlinemeeting) that contains a string value for the joinurl (i.e the 'Join Meeting' link in a Teams Meeting) and the quickDial (i.e. the phonenumber with the conference id and # at the end that can dial the phone automatically; ex: +15556789012,,18013081301#). Below is a screenshot of the json you get from the onlinemeeting of the Teams Meeting.
I'm including screenshots to show how I did this in case someone comes across this in the future because I'm all about helping out the next person trying to do this. 😋
NOTE: It doesn't appear the default SMS App on Android displays a link to the quickdial correctly. Don't try to format the 'tel:' link using html tags like I did - it's a complete waste of time. I don't think the Twilio connector recognizes any html links outside of 'http:' or 'https:'
The 'tel:' link will display correctly on an iPhone and when users click on it it will dial the entire number along with the conference id and hit the '#' key at the end to enter the meeting. It's possible another SMS client on the Android will format the link correctly, but I haven't had a chance to test with a different app.
