To add the Cisco Webex Teams (formerly Cisco Spark) channel to your bot, the developer must create a bot app and an integration app in Cisco Webex Teams.<\/p>\n

Adding the Cisco Spark channel to your Kore.ai bot is a four-step process to allow end-users of your bot to interact with your bot using their Cisco Spark<\/em> accounts. To add the Cisco Spark channel to your bot, follow the below steps:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Create a Cisco Spark\u00a0App<\/strong> – In your Spark for Developers<\/em> account, you must create an app to provide authorization for communication between\u00a0Cisco Spark<\/i> and your Kore.ai bot. To create a Cisco Spark<\/em>\u00a0app, you must have created and registered for a free account in the Spark for Developers<\/a> portal.<\/li>\n
  2. Get an Access Token<\/strong> – To use Cisco Spark as a channel for your Kore.ai bot, have a valid Spark Bot Username<\/strong> and generate an access token to provide authentication for communications.<\/li>\n
  3. Setup Integration<\/strong> – Define the Cisco Spark integration to your Kore.ai bot by adding the Call Back URL to Kore.ai and setting the Cisco Spark app Scopes to receive and send messages to and from Cisco Spark<\/i>.<\/li>\n
  4. Enable<\/b> – After setting up the Cisco Spark app and entering configuration data in Bot Builder, you must enable the channel.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
