In the legacy app, once the column in the GlideTables was of Type telephone number, we could just touch it and it would open the call app on the phone to make the call. In the new app it no longer seems to do that, it seems to be treating it as text.

Am I doing something wrong or have we lost this feature ?

Seems to be the case. You could use an action row component that would provide a button to add a dial phone number action.

I am assuming this is not counted as an edit. ?

No, that would not count as an update as you are not updating anything. It’s just opening the phone’s dialer app.
