Dialing Microsoft Teams Phone Service via Zoho CRM

Dialing Microsoft Teams Phone Service via Zoho CRM

I am using the VOIP option in Microsoft teams for my office phone system. I was hoping to have a way to dial numbers directly from Zoho CRM, but don't see anything in the Teams Integration or in the Telephony integration that will enable this.

Does anyone know if there is a way to enable this or if this is on the roadmap?

Thanks!

      • Fetching leads from Zoho CRM into Zoho Creator, automatically

        I'd like to pull new leads from the CRM system, into Creator, on a daily basis. Is this possible?   Yes, it is possible. Zoho Creator and Zoho CRM are integrated with each other, enabling you to synchronize data between them. This is done by fetching records from CRM into a Zoho Creator form. In order to achieve this, you'll have to configure a workflow alert in Zoho CRM.  For instance, you can maintain the lead details in CRM on a separate form in Zoho Creator by fetching the details automatically
