When adding users, first and last names must not include extended ASCII characters or the following characters %, #, <, >, \, /,", and have a maximum length of 30 characters. These special character restrictions only apply to Webex Calling users.

If you synchronize users from a directory such as Active Directory, when you manually add people in Control Hub you must also add them to your directory.

Before you begin

You may get an error if you're trying to add users who used their email address to create a trial account. Have the users delete their organization first before adding them to your organization.

Immediately after adding a calling user, if an error is received when selecting the user Calling Settings, we recommend that you remove the Webex Calling license and then reassign the calling license to the user.
