This is a guide that explains how to add Imagicle Gadgets to Webex client from Webex Control Hub.

Applies to:

  • Webex version >= 41.9.0
  • IAS Version >= 2023.Winter.1

Limitations:

  • Gadgets don't work if the Imagicle UC Suite has a self-signed certificate and secure connection is used, this is because Webex only admits trusted sites/gadgets
  • The certificate must be trusted by a public certification authority (or an internal certification authority if the UCSuite is reached internally)
  • Webex Mobile app and Webex web version are still not supporting this feature
  • Connection to the gadgets is not tunneled through Expressway (you need to allow access from the internet, in case a direct connection to Imagicle server is not available)

Sign in to Webex Control Hub as Administrator and open the Apps page.

Scroll down to Shortcuts section and click on Add shortcut
