Hi,


I have a field of Skype ID and I’m trying to have a button/field that pressing it will open a Skype chat with this specific user.


I found online html code that does that: <a href="skype:<username>?chat">Start Chat</a>



I tried using button with open URL ("skype:"&{Skype}&"?chat") but Airtable treats it as http and adds http which breaks the link.



I tried opening a script with the script:



let table = base.getTable("TEST");

let record = await input.recordAsync('Pick a record', table);

let link = "skype:" + record.Skype + "?chat";

output.markdown(`(Click here](${link})`);



but the link built doesn’t open anything.


I tried URL field but again the http is added.


I tried using long reach text field with markdown code: click here


and it doesn’t work too…



Please advise how to do it.



Thanks, Amit
