WebEx devices ssh account

[Aswin S]

If there are no local accounts created in WebEx cloud devices, is it possible to take SSH of the devices, using WebEx control hub login?

What I am trying to do is, I have a python script, It will send xCommand to TMS on prem devices through SSH and I will store the CLI results in a Notepad. The same I am trying to achieve for the devices in WebEx cloud, but I think I need a local user created in all WebEx connected devices to achieve this right? There are around 750+ devices in cloud without local user created, so checking for alternative way to send the xCommand to all devices via script.

Never tried, but i think you need to have a local users to do that.  You can try running script with the control hub account on one  devices and see the behavior.

When you access the web interface through the Control Hub, a temporary local user, Webex Admin, is created. You can also access the configurations and program against the device without going through the Control Hub. Then you must set up a local Admin, Integrator, RoomControl, or User user. Read more about the local user roles in the Local User Administration article.

After the first time, and if you have set up a local Admin user on the device, you can access the web interface directly by opening a web browser and typing in http(s)://<endpoint ip or hostname>.

Otherwise, you must sign in through the Control Hub.
