Telephone field to make calls

jalape

Good Morning,
I am trying to create a link so that I can make calls from a phone field in a table.
I'm using an html <a> tag in the columns: data, but it doesn't show me the field data.

{
   "render": function (data, type, JsonResultRow, meta) {
      return '<a href="tel:'+JsonResultRow.tb_contacto.telefonoFijo+'"></a>';
   }
},

Thank you

There is not an obvious issue with the code snippet you posted. Do you get errors in the browser's console?

Please post a link to your page or a test case replicating the issue so we an see exactly what you have and offer suggestions.

I've found a way to do it,

        { 
                data: "tb_contacto.telefonoFijo",
                "render": function(data, type, row, meta){
                    if(type === 'display'){
                        data = '<a href="tel:' + data + '">' + data + '</a>';
                    }
                    return data;
                }
            },

Thank you
