Replace phone number with "text" input

Hi everyone!
I was wondering if anyone knows how to change the display of a phone number for a Name.

i.e. in my app I have a column with phone numbers which has an action to call bound to it. I dont want the number to show in the map, but the name of the owner of that phone number.3X_5_7_570b33dbc1dcd6f1093befa98f5b618169e99bf1.png

I want to change 5554515793 into โ€œJuanโ€ , is that possible?

Thanks!

Hi @Nicolas_Feldman,

Yes, I believe that is possible.

Please create an action type โ€œExtrnal;Start a phone callโ€ with settings as below.

In the โ€œToโ€ setting, insert the name of the โ€œPhoneโ€ calumn. Please hide the phone column in the detail and may be in summary view using CONTEXT(โ€œViewTypeโ€) <> โ€œDetailโ€

Please have that action as inline type and please attach it to the name column.

Result would be somethng like below. I believe you coulddo the same for text message icon as well.
