    Hi @belasor ,

    We are unable to use “tel:” links in Text editor in SharePoint Online currently.

    As a workaround, you can configure a Modern Script Editor web part and use <a> to achieve your requirement. The below lists the steps for your reference:

    1. Please refer to this article to configure a modern script editor web part:

    2. add the HTML code into the Modern Script Editor web part:
    <a href=”tel:XXXXX″>Phone Number</a>
