I am trying to do a phone call from our web app to Zoom desktop phone:

Got this working by following this guide:

> **[Initiate an outbound call - Zoom Phone - Documentation](https://marketplace.zoom.us/docs/guides/zoom-phone/outbound-call)**
>
> Initiate an outbound call
> 
> Zoom supports various URI Schemes that allow users to launch the Zoom Phone client by clicking on a secure hyperlink or a but...

1st question: Is this a deprecated approach? This is a valid guide but in documentation URL scheme is said to be deprecated

Also, anyway to inject a caller id when we have multiples Zoom phone lines? ie callerid=XXXX

Hi @alidufour,

Thanks for reaching out about this. The Zoom Phone Outbound call schema should still be supported as of right now. However, we will be introducing API endpoints for handling outbound call initiation shortly, which at some point may be the preferred method for handling this action. Keep an eye on our [changelog](https://marketplace.zoom.us/docs/changelog) for this release.

Regarding injecting a caller ID, this is a great suggestion, but I do not believe it’s currently supported. If you’re so inclined, you might consider suggesting a feature request for this here: #feature-requests

Thanks,  
Will
