Cisco Webex is an app-centric, cloud-based service that provides a complete collaboration suite for teams to create, meet, message, call, care, white board, and share, regardless of whether they’re together or apart—in one continuous workstream before, during, and after meetings. It is built to help teams work seamlessly. It is simple, secure, complete, and open, and provides a space for people to work better. The core capabilities of Cisco Webex are Meetings, Messaging, and Calling. The Cisco Webex platform, app-centric design, hybrid services, and architecture of Cisco Webex create a unique and differentiated service. For more information on the solution, refer to Cisco Webex.
Cisco Webex Meetings provides a Messaging API that VFC is able to use to retrieve content from Webex Rooms. The Webex Import Source uses the Webex Messaging API to list and download available recordings, query and add participants prior to ingest. Separate recordings are created for each recorded Webex user. Each recording contains details of all meeting participants. Once triggered, Webex content is ingested indefinitely in near real-time. If the integration is restarted or the first recording start time reset, no duplicate content will be created within VFC.

Name | Name your Import Source. This name will identify the source across the system. | Recommended to include the import source type and purpose. |
Type | Import Source type | Select WebEx (not Cisco Spark) from the Import Type drop-down |
Webex Integration Client Id | Client Id value obtained during previous step of Webex creation integration. Used during OAuth authentication. | Example: M2lzY29zcGFyazovL3VzL0FQUExJQ0FUSU9OL0MzNWI4NmM0 ATg2Nzc3NmQxNzhiMjg1OGIwMTMzNTdiODJiMTFkZjVlNmM1N GhiZTlkOGNjNzYyMDcyMTU3M2Mz |

Webex Integration Redirect URI | URI called by Webex during authentication process. Same value used during configuration of the Webex integration. | http(s)://<VFC Hostname>:<VFC Port>/Webex/RedirectURI/OAuth VFC Hostname is the name of the VFC server VFC Port is the port opened in the customer firewall for Webex access. |

Recording Import Batch Size (minutes) | Every time the Import Source is run by the Data Management Policy, it attempts to retrieve Webex content dated from the Webex Recording Timestamp to the Webex Recording Timestamp plus the Recording Import Batch Size in minutes. IMPORTANT: The maximum number of recordings that can be retrieved within the time period above is 100. If Webex recording usage is high, reduce the Recording Import Batch Size so there are no more than 100 recordings during the period. No alert is currently raised if more than 100 recordings are present. | |
On Completion Delete Recordings Stored in Webex | Allows VFC to become the single repository for Webex content. | Not yet supported, to be implemented in a future release. |
Webex | Do not press this button until an active Data Management Policy has been created.

Webex | Once all previous steps have been completed, press this button. A popup window appears which allows the Compliance Officer to authenticate the Import Source via Webex logon. Once authenticated, an encrypted token is stored on the VFC Import Server. The token is automatically renewed when required by the VFC Webex Import Source. After authentication, token status information is displayed as shown below. Token status information can also be checked by entering the first part of the Redirect URI: http(s)://<VFC Hostname>:<VFC Port> VFC Hostname is the name of the VFC server VFC Port is the port opened in the customer firewall for Webex access. |
