Connecting cloud telephony to LeadTable (using Aircall as the example)

How to connect your cloud phone system to LeadTable so you can dial your leads straight from LeadTable.

Connecting cloud telephony to LeadTable (e.g. AirCall) 📞

LeadTable connects directly to your cloud phone system, so you can start calls without leaving LeadTable.
This article walks you through the integration step by step, using AirCall as the example.

What you need for it to work 🔧

Before you start, make sure that:

  • your cloud phone system offers a desktop app (not just a browser version)

  • you have that app installed

  • you are signed in to the desktop app

  • the app is set as your default handler for phone links (e.g. tel:+49123456789) 😊

⚠️ Without a desktop app, LeadTable has no way to hand phone links over to your system.

How do you change your default phone handler? 🛠️

👉 Pick your operating system for the instructions.

Guide for Apple devices

Which cloud phone systems does this work with? 📡

These are some of the systems it works with:

  • Aircall

  • RingCentral

  • Dialpad

  • Zoom Phone (via the Zoom desktop client)

  • Microsoft Teams Phone (via the Teams desktop app)

  • Cisco Webex Calling (via the Webex app)

  • Placetel (with Webex or a softphone, depending on your setup)

  • sipgate (sipgate app / sipgate business, for instance)

  • and plenty more

What matters: the system needs a desktop app and it has to be able to pick up tel: links.
