CTRL+SHIFT+J hot key for Webex Teams Click to Call

Jabber utilized CTRL-SHIFT-J to initiate calling from any highlighted number in a browser or Microsoft Office application. Can you please add this shortcut to Webex Teams Calling, to invoke a call utilizing UCM calling, or other back-end calling platform as applicable?


This was useful when calling from websites, documents, even the directory if the Outlook integration is not possible due to other plugins.

    There is now a github tool at: https://github.com/mooneye1000/hotkeytocall

    This option should be enhanced to also allow placing a call by highlighting a number + right clicking it + select "Call using Webex".

    Do you have visibility on this feature ?

    even with the Chrome extension, it is not possible to select a phone number (without link) and use a keyboard shortcut to call

    I don't know if this will help get what you want however, you can add the "Webex Call" extension in Chrome so that when you highlight a number and right click it, you can get the Webex app to place the call. It works the same as the "Call with Jabber" extension works.

    I can see this is set to Future Consideration. Do we have a tentative timeline/quarter for this feature?
