To register a device, you need to create an activation code in Control Hub first. To learn how to create an activation code, see Add Shared Devices and Services to a Workspace .

From the local web interface, you can only register a device that has not been previously registered.


If the device has not been registered before or it has been factory reset, you must set up the time zone and language settings from the wizard. If the wizard times out, default settings will be applied.

Limitations

Some of the configurations, commands, and statuses that are available in the API only apply to on-premises registered devices. They don’t apply to Webex registered devices. In the API guide's Supported Commands Matrix, these items are marked with “On-prem only”.

Among the non-applicable configurations, commands and statuses, are all those related to H.323, H.320, SIP, NTP, CUCM, LDAP, Proximity, and Far End Camera Control.

We recommend you not to program against API commands in these categories.
