Video calling integrated with google duo, whatsapp or similar

Hey guys,

I envision a touchscreen or tablet in my office, that basically replaces the front desk person. My clients would walk in, see the screen and touch it. They would then see a menu, something like “What can we help you with?” When they click on an option, it will open a video call with the correct person.

Is it possible to make Appsheet integrated with google duo, whatsapp or something similar for video calling?

Thank you

AppSheet has no built-in support for what you want. I can imagine ways you could approximate it, but nothing that would be reliable or secure. From my perspective, I suspect AppSheet is not a good option for your goal.

I would agree, AppSheet might not be the best option for this - but it can do (part) of the job.

The menu launcher could open to a google meet (or other video chat URL) - but there would still be some “fiddly work” the user would need to do (depending on the platform).

Like: they’d still need to join the call (and that sort of extra step could pose a barrier).

Thank you Steve for your feedback. I think it would be great if AppSheet could accommodate video calling features integrated with third parties.

is it possible to use whatsapp video call link to make it make sense for Appsheet for a while?
