Can you execute a phone call through jabber from a command prompt?

Is it possible to execute a phone call through jabber from a command prompt?

ie  from DOS:

ciscojabber.exe -call 5555555  or something like this?

What is the use case for this scenario? Only commands that I have seen for Cisco Jabber is to specify arguments in a Windows command prompt to set installation properties. Personally, I have never seen commands to execute a phone call form Cisco Jabber using command prompt. You can use Jabber Voice Web SDK on Windows/Mac OS. Maybe you can check this post:

Thanks, Vaijanath S.

I wrote an app that pulled the user's phone number from active directory, and I wanted to have a way to just hit a button, and have it bounce to jabber and place the phone call.

Figured something out that worked using the tel://##### protocol. So far it's working.

I do not think you would be able to dial direct from a command prompt / powershell. I am sure there are a number of dialer apps that utilize the tel: protocol handler, and if you associate that to Jabber, in theory you can get your call from a CLI.
