API for integration with Cisco Webex Connect

[swapna.he1]

We have an application for sending the application specific alerts to users via email. This application is a windows service written in C# language. We use Cisco WebEx connect for internal communication in our company and we are planning to integrate our application with Cisco Webex Connect to send alerts as instant messages to the users. We are looking for any Cisco API/SDK  available for this requirement.

The only Cisco DevNet supported interface for WebEx Connect integration is CAXL:

Cisco Jabber Developer - Overview - Cisco Developer Community

However note this is a JavaScript library intended for use in browsers.

It is also possible to use XMPP protocol with Connect, and interoperability is known to be very good.  However direct XMPP connection from third party apps is not officially supported.  For a service-based C# app, you could consider a third party XMPP stack: https://xmpp.org/xmpp-software/libraries/
