Set Up Calling Behavior for Cisco Webex
You can control which calling application is used and how calls are routed when people dial PSTN numbers or extensions from Cisco Webex. You configure this setting at the organization level, and you can also override your organization's default setting for specific users with different calling needs.
Before you begin
-
Your organization must have the correct subscriptions for the calling behavior you choose.
-
If you choose Cisco Jabber, make sure it's registered with the ciscotel
protocol handler.
-
Users must have valid phone numbers. If the numbers are invalid,
Webex still sends the number to the calling app that you select, but the call fails.
1 | From the customer view in https://admin.webex.com/, go to Management > Organization Settings, and then
scroll to Calling Behavior. |
2 |
Choose the app you want to use as your organization-level setting for calling within
Webex and then click
Save
:
-
Calling in
Webex
—Select this option if you want users to make calls directly in

Webex Calling app. When users make PSTN calls in
Webex, the
Webex Calling app launches and is used to make the call.

Third-Party app
—Select this option if your organization has a subscription to a third-party calling app and you want to allow users to make PSTN calls using that app. Typically, the
Webex users in your organization have free calling for this option. When users make PSTN calls in
