    Administrators can check what version of the app their users have by running the Messaging App Version Report, see Reports for your Cloud Collaboration portfolio

    Running the App

    The app has its own auto-update solution, independent from the operating system's installation mechanism. The app is only installed once using the operating system mechanism. After that, the app automatically updates without the knowledge of the operating system. Therefore, the installed version of the app might be a different version than the one you see while using the app.

    Update process

    A new release takes 7 days to roll out to everyone. During those 7 days, users can proactively check for updates. Users can read Update the app to the latest release.

    We automatically apply the update after the 7 day rollout window.

    If you havePro Pack for Control Hub, you can check what version of the app your users are on. See the Messaging App Version Report in Analytics for your cloud collaboration portfolio.

    KadaAplikacija Webexis running, it periodically checks to see if there is a newer version of the app available. When a newer version becomes available, the app automatically downloads the new version and stores it on the local computer:

    • On Windows:

      C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Local\CiscoSparkLauncher

      C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Local\CiscoSpark

      C:\Users\<username>\AppData\LocalLow\WebEx

      C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Local\WebEx

    • On MacOS:

      ~/Library/Application Support/Cisco Spark

    We store the current version and the new version of the application in these folders, so that the app can fall back if the upgrade does not work out.

    If we release a patch for a release, we update all organizations within a 3 day rollout window.
