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.

Recording is supported for the following modalities only:
|
1. Prerequisites
- Two components, a Cisco Webex integration application and a VFC Import Source are required.
- Firewall access must be arranged as two way internet communication is required between the Import Source and Webex.
- Incoming data to the Import Source server is specified in the Webex Integration redirect URI. The URL and port number is fully configurable and is secured by TLS over HTTP. The port number cannot be 443 as this is already used by the VFC WebApplication.
- Outgoing data to Webex is on Port 443.
- API Access: Between https://webexapis.com/v1/ and the Import Source server.
- VFC video or audio recording licence.
2. Create a Cisco Webex Integration
To create a Webex integration, a Webex account backed by Cisco Webex Common Identity (CI) is required. If no Webex account is available, sign up. If you're using Webex Meetings, your site will must be on Common Identity. Typically, the user creating the API Integration needs to be the Compliance Officer on Webex. Navigate to https://developer.webex.com/my-apps and press the Create a new app button. Then press the Create an integration button to create an OAuth Integration.

- meeting:recordings_read
- meeting:recordings_write
- meeting:participants_read
Once all the integration values have been entered, press the Add Integration button. Make a note of the two important values shown, Client Id and Client Secret. They are required during the next step, configuration of the VFC Webex Import Source.
3. Create a WebEx Import Source
Follow the steps in VFC to create a new Import source. All settings are mandatory, apart from TLS configuration.
Step 1 - Open the VFC Web interface then select Data > Import Sources from the top menu
Step 2 - Click on the Add New Import Source link on the top right.
Step 3 - Complete the configuration according to the requirements in the following table
...
Configuration Item
...
Description
...
Mandatory. Client Id value obtained during previous step of Webex creation integration. Used during OAuth authentication.
...
Example:
M2lzY29zcGFyazovL3VzL0FQUExJQ0FUSU9OL0MzNWI4NmM0
ATg2Nzc3NmQxNzhiMjg1OGIwMTMzNTdiODJiMTFkZjVlNmM1N
GhiZTlkOGNjNzYyMDcyMTU3M2Mz
...
Mandatory. Client Secret value obtained during previous step of Webex creation integration. Used during OAuth authentication.
...
Example:
0c2e71a7f2628596ad856a9e6ab7efddead07d6b272dc2a2ef3f9fc4cf74d0b7
...
Mandatory. URI called by Webex during authentication process. Same value used during configuration of the Webex integration.
...
VFC Hostname is the name of the VFC server
VFC Port is the port opened in the customer firewall for Webex access.
The port number cannot be 443 as this is already used by the VFC Web Application.
Must be exactly the same value used to configure the Webex Integration Redirect URI. Note case sensitivity and port restrictions.
...
Optional file system location where the certificate key is stored.
...
Specify the password for the file that contains the certificate keys.
...
Certificate chain (or Chain of Trust) is made up of a list of certificates that start from a server's certificate and terminate with the root certificate. If your server's certificate is to be trusted, its signature has to be traceable back to its root CA.
...
Mandatory. Timestamp of the earliest WebEx recording to be ingested. This can be a timestamp in the past, e.g., 2020, if historic Webex content is required to be ingested.
The Import Source will gradually catchup with real-time as it is run by successive Data Management Policies, but will take longer to catch up depending on the number of historic recordings and the Recording Import Batch Size (see note below).
...
Example:
2023.01.29 07:00:00
...
Mandatory. 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.
...
Example:
60
...
Optional. Allows VFC to become the single repository for Webex content.
The recording deleted from Webex cannot be recovered.
If a Compliance Officer deletes another user's recording, the recording will be inaccessible to regular users (host, attendees and shared), but will be still available to the Compliance Officer.
Only recordings of meetings hosted by the authenticated user can be deleted.
...
Mandatory. Webex Authentication cannot be completed unless the VFC Import Source is running because it depends on an OAuth HTTP(S) callback from Webex to the Import Source. This is why the VFC Import Source must be saved and an Active Data Management Policy created. The callback provides VFC with an Access Token that Webex content ingestion depends upon.
The Authentication Keep-Alive setting is a temporary configuration value which ensures the installation engineer has enough time to press the Authenticate Now button and authenticate with Webex before the VFC Import Source terminates inline with the VFC Data Management Policy.
Once the engineer has completed Webex authentication, the Authentication Keep-Alive can be reduced to zero because the Access Token has been obtained and saved locally on the server where the VFC Import Source is run.
The Access Token is securely encrypted. This value can be changed at any time during production hours. The updated value will be used the next time the Data Management Policy runs the Import Source.
...
Example:
99 - During initial installation
2 - If a periodic check of the VFC Webex Token/Authentication status web page is required during production.
0 - During normal operation to avoid delay in completing processing of the Import Source. The value can be updated at any time if an adhoc check is required.
...
Webex
...
Do not press this button until an active Data Management Policy has been created.
Until the VFC Import Source has been saved with settings for all of the above values and an active Data Management Policy created, this button will not authenticate the VFC Import Source with Webex and content will not be ingested.

| On Completion Delete Recordings Stored in Webex | Optional. Allows VFC to become the single repository for Webex content. The recording deleted from Webex cannot be recovered, so this setting must be set with great care. If a Compliance Officer deletes the recording of another user, the recording becomes inaccessible to regular users (host, attendees, and shared), but remains available to the Compliance Officer. Only recordings of meetings hosted by the authenticated user can be deleted. | Tick to delete recordings from Webex immediately after VFC ingestion or leave unticked to have recordings both in Webex and in VFC. |
| Authentication Keep-Alive (minutes) | Mandatory. Webex Authentication cannot be completed unless the VFC Import Source is running because it depends on an OAuth HTTP(S) callback from Webex to the Import Source. Due to this behavior, the VFC Import Source must be saved and an Active Data Management Policy created. The callback provides VFC with an Access Token that Webex content ingestion depends upon. The Authentication Keep-Alive setting is a temporary configuration value which ensures the installation engineer has enough time to press the Authenticate Now button and authenticate with Webex before the VFC Import Source terminates inline with the VFC Data Management Policy. Once the Webex authentication obtains the token, the Authentication Keep-Alive must be reduced to zero and the Import Service restarted. The Access Token is securely encrypted and automatically updated during production. | Example: 99 - During initial installation 2 - If a periodic check of the VFC Webex Token/Authentication status webpage is required during production. 0 - During typical operation to avoid delay in completing processing of the Import Source. The value can be updated at any time if an ad hoc check is required. |
Webex
| Mandatory. Do not press this button until an active Data Management Policy has been created. Until the VFC Import Source has been saved with settings for all of the above values and an active Data Management Policy created, this button does not authenticate the VFC Import Source with Webex, and content is not ingested. Once Authenticate Now is pressed, it should not be used again, only if the integration was not active for a long time, and the Webex Access Token expired. | N/A |

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 Once Webex has Authenticated (step below), reduce Authentication Keep-Alive (minutes) to the required value and restart the Import Service. |
6. Validate Webex Authentication
OAuth token status information can be displayed by entering the first part of the Redirect URI in a web browser.
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.
7. Configure Users in VFC
Follow the steps below to configure users in VFC:
Step 1 - In the VFC web interface, go to Users > Users.
Step 2 - Click Add new User.
Step 3 - Enter the email address of the user is in lowercase and set the value to the same email address that the user joins Webex with.
Step 4 - Add user information, making sure the validity of the user extends to cover the range of their Webex recordings.
Step 5 - Click Save.

Step 4 - Set the Type to User/Agent Id.
Step 5 - Set the Recording Settings to Voice and Video.
Step 6 - Click Save.
9. Resilience
If Webex content failed to ingest, resilience is provided by the retry buffer. This buffer contains VFC CDR files in XML format that failed to be ingested and must be retried. The Webex import source automatically adds a batch of up to 25 of these files to the current ingestion each time it runs. Once added, the XML file is removed from the retry buffer, but is automatically readded if the ingestion fails again. If the CDR is successfully ingested, it appears in the ingestion status report alongside the other content. Files can be manually added or removed to the retry buffer if required for troubleshooting purposes. Retry buffer capability also enables the import source to track real-time, as it enables historic failures to be retried.
Alternatively, if the VFCImport Service is required to be stopped for reasons of troubleshooting or maintenance, the manual procedure below must be used:
Step 1 - In the VFC web interface, disable the Data Management Policy associated with the Webex Import Source.
Step 2 - Open Windows Explorer and go to Program Files\Verba\work\cdrimport\webex\laststate\policyId_importSourceId
Step 3 - Open the policyId_importSourceId.cursor file in a text editor program. The file contains one line and looks similar to the following example:
c84f2f698fc9d64d64ed161d87b00c25_I_251182078220051266_19d0243a-9fd0-11d1-ac11-13453884b96c;2023.02.02 07:00:00.000
Step 4 - Set the timestamp to a date and time before the failure ensuring this time stamp plus the import batch duration and the recording lag is less than the current time stamp and then save the file.
Step 5 - Re-enable the Data Management Policy associated with the Webex Import Source

12. Webex Content Ingestion Status Reporting
No report files are generated, however at the end of each batch, a notification alert is raised containing details of recordings migrated from Webex into VFC.
Example alert:
The Webex Import Source does not generate report files, but at the end of each batch, a notification alert is raised containing details of Webex content ingested into VFC.
Example alert shown below. Note that due to the overlap approach used in the sliding window mechanism, mention of conversations already imported is as expected.
If no recordings are found in Webex for the time period of the Webex batch sliding window, an alert is generated. This alert does not indicate an error, only that Webex has no content for the time period specified.
