You can automatically or manually connect a device to your Webex App and even set your desk phone as a default.

If Webex App doesn’t connect to a device in your organization automatically, you can manually connect to the device. Just search for the device in the app and then enter the PIN that appears on the device and you’re connected.
To manually connect to a device outside your organization, connect to it by using a 9-character code and then entering the PIN. The PIN just verifies that you’re connecting to the right device because you have to be close to the device to see the PIN on the screen.
