A partner or a customer administrator can set up services for trials and subscription orders. Services setup wizard experience is the same for the trial and subscription provisioning flows. We recommend that partners complete these steps before handing over the account to customer administrators.

You can use any supported browser to access Control Hub.

Partner Administrator Access

  • For Trials: When you set up a new trial using the Start New Trial wizard, after you provide the information to start the trial, the final screen displays "Your trial is ready. Do you want to set up the services for the customer?".

    Click Yes to continue to set up services for the customer.

  • For Subscription Orders: When you create a Webex Contact Center Order using the Order Set-Up wizard, after you specify the order information, the final screen displays "Thank you. The order has been mapped correctly".

    Click Next to continue to set up services for the customer.

Customer Administrator Access

For Trials and Subscription Orders: When the trial starts or the subscription order is successfully mapped, the customer administrator receives a Welcome email on the email address that is specified in the Start Trial wizard or Order Set-Up wizard.

Do the following to access the customer administrator account on Control Hub:

1

Open the Welcome email.

2

Click the Get Started link in the email.

Enter the password and click Save & Sign In.

After a contact center trial or subscription starts, access the Services setup wizard to configure the contact center tenant using the Control Hub URL https://admin.webex.com/.

On the Contact Center Settings page, do the following:

    By default, the country of operation is same as the country that is chosen in the Order Mapping wizard.

    Webex Contact Center creates the tenant in the appropriate data center based on the country of operation. For the list of countries and the corresponding data center mapping, see the article Data Locality in Webex Contact Center .

    By default, Webex Contact Center selects a time zone based on the region that your contact center operates from.

    One or more Webex Contact Center platform options are available based on the country of operation you choose. For subscription orders, choose the default platform unless instructed otherwise by the Cisco Solution Assurance contact.

  5. In the Webex Contact Center Telephony section, based on the platform you choose, select the applicable telephony option and click Next. See the table below for the telephony options available for various platforms.
