Introduction
Lab Objective
In this Lab, we will go through the tasks that are required to complete the general pre-configuration of a tenant. These tasks are to be undertaken by an administrator. By following each of the steps, you would have prepared your tenant to begin configuring different bot functionalities that are supported with the new digital channels. The lab contains multiple exercises to make you familiar with the Control Hub, Management portal UI and Webex Connect. At the end of the lab, you should be able to log in to an agent desktop interface and also complete the basic authentications required for working with Webex Connect application.

JUST READ, ALREADY CONFIGURED
Step 1. Node Authorization for Webex CC Task and Engage nodes
Webex Connect is required to provide a valid access token for using various Webex Contact Center and imiengage APIs. The access token is generated using the authorization details configured within the ‘Node Runtime Authorization’ field that Webex Contact Center users are required to provide during flow configuration.
Because this is a shared tenant, the nodes are already authorized. You don’t need to complete this step, just read it to understand how it would be.
-
Access the Webex Connect UI: [https://labtenant.us.webexconnect.io/]
-
To authorize a pre-built integration go to Assets > Integrations. The integrations which are not yet authorized show the status as Pending Authorization.
-
In front of Webex CC Engage Click Actions → Manage.
-
On the Manage Integrations page, scroll down to the Node Authorizations section. This section lists all the authorizations mapped to this integration.
-
Click Action → Add Authorization associated with the authorization, where Auth Type is oauth2 and Status is Authorization Pending.
- Enter the Authorization Name and click Authorize. In that example we use WebexCCAuth\
- Click on the back button for being redirected back to Integrations page and in front of Webex CC Task Click Actions → Manage.
-
On the Manage Integrations page, scroll down to the Node Authorizations section. This section lists all the authorizations mapped to this integration.
-
Click Action → Add Authorization associated with the authorization, where Auth Type is oauth2 and Status is Authorization Pending.
- Enter the Authorization Name (for example: WxCCAuth) and click Authorize. As the result the pop-up appears where you need to enter your Cisco admin email address (wxcclabs+admin_IDX@gmail.com) and click Sign in.
!!!: The status of the authorization will change to Authorized and all the nodes under this authorization are authorized and ready for use.
