Install

npm install --save ciscospark

Usage

To use the SDK, you will need Cisco Webex credentials. If you do not already have a Cisco Webex account, visit Cisco Webex for Developers to create your account and retrieve your access token.

See the detailed docs for more usage examples.

const ciscospark = require(`ciscospark`);
const teams = ciscospark.init({
  credentials: {
    access_token: 
  }
});

// Create a room with the title "My First Room"
// Add Alice and Bob to the room
// Send a **Hi Everyone** message to the room
teams.rooms.create({ title: `My First Room` }).then(room => {
  return Promise.all([
    teams.memberships.create({
      roomId: room.id,
      personEmail: `alice@example.com`
    }),
    teams.memberships.create({
      roomId: room.id,
      personEmail: `bob@example.com`
    })
  ]).then(() =>
    teams.messages.create({
      markdown: `**Hi Everyone**`,
      roomId: room.id
    })
  );
});

A note on browser usage

We do not provide a built version of the SDK that includes window.ciscospark. In-browser usage is almost the same as Node.js, but it handles the user authentication flow for you. See the browser guide for more information.

If you're already using a bundler (like Webpack) you can simply import/require the package and use the above snippet and assign the initialized team variable to window.webex. For a quick example, we'll use Parcel to bundle the SDK for a website. For any more information and questions on how to use Parcel, please head to their website.

1. Create index.js.

import { init as initWebex } from 'ciscospark';

// Initialize the SDK and make it available to the window
const webex = (window.webex = initWebex({
  credentials: {
    access_token: 
  }
}));

// Create a room with the title "My First Room"
webex.rooms
  .create({
    title: 'My First Room!'
  })
  .catch((error) => {
    console.error(error);
  });

// Filter for "My First Room" from the last 10 rooms
webex.rooms
  .list({
    max: 10
  })
  .then((rooms) => {
    // Destructure room properties for its id (aliased to roomId) and title
    const { id: roomId, title } = rooms.items.filter(
      room => room.title === 'My First Room!'
    )[0];

    // Post message "Hello World!" to "My First Room!"
    webex.messages.create({
      roomId,
      text: 'Hello World!'
    });

    // Log the the room name and the message we created
    return webex.messages
      .list({ roomId, max: 1 })
      // Destructure promised value to get the text property from the first item in items array
      .then(({ items: [{ text }] }) =>
        console.log(`Last message sent to room "${title}": ${text}`)
      );
  })
  .catch((error) => {
    console.error(error);
  });

2. Create index.html.

  
    <title>Webex SDK for Browsers</title>
  
  
    
  

3. Run parcel index.html in your terminal.
4. Go to https://localhost:1234 and open the developer console to see the output.
