Jabber Webex Teams App

JabberJabber Webex Teams

This article provides interoperability between your cloud-based Jabber deployment and Webex. This is different to the interoperability between on-premises Jabber deployments and Webex users (see https://www.cisco.com/go/hybrid-services-message for more on that deployment).

With the Cisco Webex / Jabber Interop setting enabled:

  • People can send or receive messages between Webex and Jabber apps.

  • Jabber users see a status of On Cisco Webex, when their contact is using Webex.

Deployment Requirements

Supported for Cisco Jabber cloud deployments only.

Before you enable this setting, check the following:

  • Your organization must be added to the Cisco Platform identity service. You can check in Cisco Webex Control Hub to see if your organization has been added. If your organization hasn't been added, you can contact the Cisco Customer Support team or your Cisco Customer Success Manager to request that your organization is added to the Cisco Platform identity service. This process to add users to the identity service takes some time to complete.

    For more information on the request process for Cisco Customer Support or Cisco Customer Success Manager, see this support article.

    Cisco Jabber (Webex Messenger) and Webex domains must be identical for the Webex Messenger Org to be synched into the Cisco Platform identity service.

    Cisco Directory Connector must be disabled in Control Hub, as this method of managing users is not compatible with how users are managed in a Jabber cloud deployment.

  • If you use Single Sign On (SSO) for Webex Messenger then you must set up SSO for Cisco Platform identity service. For more information about configuring SSO, see the Cisco Webex Messenger Install and Upgrade documentation.
