anchorInitialize the SDK

To use the SDK, you'll need a free Webex account; if you don't have a Cisco Webex account, visit Cisco Webex for Developers to create your account and retrieve your access token from Getting and Using your Personal Access Token.

To create a new Webex instance:

const webex = Webex.init({
    credentials: {  
       access_token: `<AUTHORIZATION/BOT TOKEN>`
    }
});

At this point, the Webex Meetings object is ready for use. The Meetings object contains a list of meetings as well as methods to perform specific operations or listen for certain events. Detailed information is included in this article.

For more information on the Meetings object, see Webex Messaging documentation.

anchorRetrieve a Meeting Object

The Meetings object is accessible from the Webex object:

const webex = new Webex.init();
const meetings = webex.meetings;

The meetings constant contains an instance of the Webex Meetings object.

anchorRegister a Meeting Device

Once the Meetings object is instantiated, you can register a device using its register() method:

const webex = new Webex.init();
await webex.meetings.register();

anchorDeregister a Meeting Device

You can deregister a registered device using the Meetings object's unregister() method:

await webex.meetings.unregister();

anchorMeetings Ready Event

A ready event fires when a Meetings object is ready for use. A Meetings object instance is ready once the containing Webex object is ready, and all the Meetings object's instance parameters are set. You can subscribe to the ready event immediately following Webex.init:

webex.meetings.on('meetings:ready',() => {
    console.log('Meetings object is ready for device registration');
    // Register a new device...
});

The ready event returns no payload.

anchorMeetings Registered Event

The registered event is emitted by a Meetings object after you call the register() method:

webex.meetings.on('meetings:registered',() => {
    console.log('Meetings object is ready to perform other operations');
    // Perform meeting operations like create, sync, etc.
});
