Launching skype invoking Cortana "Call Contact" command
I need to integrate skype calls in my application but i know that the current skype version doesn't support uri schemes.
But if i use cortana call contact command skype is being launched and the call starts correctly.
The question is: "Is there any way to invoke a cortana command by code?"
I tried using Text To Speech but cortana obviously doesn't listen to the spoken text.

Hi..
Does Cortana call command for skype work from another application?
If so, I am having trouble with it. It does not work from my applications in HoloLens. However if I say a wrong contact name, it is able to tell me that the contact does not exist. Yet on saying the correct contact name, skype does not launch. It just stays as is. Is there some changes in build settings (maybe capabilities or switching from D3D to XAML type) while building the application from where I want to call Skype?
Hi @JackStones @joshua101, any updates with a solution for this feature?
We realized that Skype is not a good option and developed our own calling application.
