For Agents

Cisco Webex provides a REST API for communication and collaboration, including managing rooms, messages, people, teams, memberships, webhooks, and meetings. Authentication uses OAuth 2.0 Bearer tokens or personal access tokens. Note: The Webex developer portal (developer.webex.com) uses JS rendering and was not fully scrapable; this spec covers the documented core API resources. The API exposes 31 endpoints secured with bearer authentication.
Install Jentic One Beta
Connect the Cisco Webex REST API to your agent
Jentic One is a self-hosted execution layer for AI agents. It lets your agent call the Cisco Webex REST API, or any other public or private API you need. You set the rules, the agent never sees your credentials, and every call is logged.
Two steps, two machines. Install the instance in a safe environment, then register your agent from wherever it runs.

Step 1: Jentic One Host machine
# On the machine that will host your Jentic One instance:
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/jentic/jentic-one/main/tools/install.sh | sh2
Step 2: Agent machine
# On the machine where your agent runs (keep this separate from the instance):
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/jentic/jentic-one/main/tools/install.sh | sh
jentic register # connects your agent to your Jentic One instanceJentic One is in public beta. The setup above keeps your agent separate from the instance, which is what you want before using real credentials: an agent running as the same OS user as Jentic One can read its stored keys directly. Just evaluating? A single local install is fine to start. See the secure deployment guide for the tiers.

Use Cases
Patterns agents use Cisco Webex REST API for, with concrete tasks.
★ Productivity Operations
Use the Cisco Webex REST API to perform productivity operations programmatically. The API provides 31 endpoints covering core functionality including create a room, list rooms, get room details.
Call POST /rooms to create a room
Automated Rooms Management
Automate rooms operations by combining multiple Cisco Webex REST API endpoints. Agents can list rooms and then get room details in a single workflow.
Call GET /rooms to list rooms, then verify the result
AI Agent Integration via Jentic
AI agents discover and call Cisco Webex REST API endpoints through Jentic without managing credentials directly. An agent searches for the required operation by intent, receives the matching endpoint schema, and executes the call with Jentic-managed authentication. This eliminates the need to read API documentation or handle bearer tokens manually.
Search Jentic for 'create a room', load the operation schema, and execute with Jentic-managed credentials

Why Jentic?
Three things that make agents converge on Jentic-routed access.
Credential isolation
Cisco Webex REST API bearer credentials are stored encrypted in the Jentic vault (MAXsystem). Agents receive scoped access tokens — raw secrets never enter the agent context.
Intent-based discovery
Agents search by intent (e.g., 'create a room') and Jentic returns the matching Cisco Webex REST API operation with its input schema, so the agent can call the right endpoint without browsing docs.
Time to first call
Direct Cisco Webex REST API integration: 1-3 days for auth handling, response parsing, and error cases. Through Jentic: under 1 hour — search, load schema, execute.

FAQs
Specific to using Cisco Webex REST API through Jentic.
What authentication does the Cisco Webex REST API use?
The Cisco Webex REST API uses a Bearer token in the Authorization header. Through Jentic, these credentials are stored encrypted in the MAXsystem vault and injected at execution time, so raw secrets never enter the agent context.
Can I create a room with the Cisco Webex REST API?
Yes. Use the POST /rooms endpoint. The API returns structured JSON responses that agents can parse and act on directly.
What are the rate limits for the Cisco Webex REST API?
Rate limits are not specified in the OpenAPI spec. Check the vendor documentation for current limits. Through Jentic, rate limiting is handled automatically with retry logic built into the execution layer.
How do I create a room through Jentic?
Install the Jentic SDK with pip install jentic, authenticate at https://app.jentic.com/sign-up, then search for 'create a room'. Jentic returns the matching Cisco Webex REST API operation with its input schema. Load the schema and execute the call — credentials are injected automatically.
How many endpoints does the Cisco Webex REST API have?
The Cisco Webex REST API exposes 31 endpoints covering rooms, messages, people operations.
