Workspaces - Create a Workspace | Webex for Developers

Create a Workspace

Create a workspace.

The locationId, workspaceLocationId, floorId, indoorNavigation, capacity, type, notes and hotdeskingStatus parameters are optional, and omitting them will result in the creation of a workspace without these values set, or set to their default. A locationId must be provided when the floorId is set. Calendar and calling can also be set for a new workspace. Omitting them will default to free calling and no calendaring. The orgId parameter can only be used by admin users of another organization (such as partners).

Information for Webex Calling fields may be found here: locations, available numbers and licenses.
The locationId and supportedDevices fields cannot be changed once configured.
When creating a webexCalling workspace, a locationId and either a phoneNumber or extension or both is required. Furthermore, it is possible to set the licenses field with a list of Webex Calling license IDs, if desired. If multiple license IDs are provided, the oldest suitable one will be applied. If no licenses are supplied, the oldest suitable one from the active subscriptions will be automaticaly applied.
