• Go to the Webex Developer Portal.
• This step requires a developer to create a developer account. This step is necessary to create an application with a specific scope, and in return, you get back ClientID and ClientSecret.
• For more information, visit Webex Integrations Documentation.
• Create a new integration here.

Guest issues app creation

• Go to the Webex Developer Portal.
• Create a new guest issuer.
