user. To provide security, the API supports the OAuth 2
standard, which allows a third-party integration to get a
temporary access token for authenticating API calls
instead of asking users for their password.
Here are a few easy steps to get started using an
integration:
Step 1. Register an integration with Webex Teams at
https://developer.Webex.com/my-apps/new.
Figure 10-5 shows the sample form on the
portal that allows you to create a new
integration.Figure 10-5 Creating a New Integration via the
Developer Portal
Step 2. Request permission by using an OAuth grant
flow by invoking the flow via
https://webexapis.com/v1/authorize and
providing a redirect URL to come back to. After
the integration is created successfully, you see a
screen like the one in Figure 10-6, which also
shows the full authorization URL.
