Webex

We can automatically create a Webex meeting whenever an incident is declared and attach it to the incident. This helps speed up your incident response and reduces the burden of manual tasks on responders.

​

​
3. Log in using a Webex organizational admin service account

The connecting user must be an organization administrator and have host privileges in your Webex organization.It’s important to know that when the integration is installed, the connection to incident.io will belong to the user that installed it. Webex connections like this, which use OAuth, belong to a specific user, for this reason, you may wish to set up a dedicated service or “bot” account.
Clicking ‘Connect’ will redirect you to a Webex login page. image.png Once you’ve logged in and authorized the connection, you’ll be redirected back to the dashboard.

4. Enable auto creation of incident calls
