[cisco-voip] Webex Directory Connector Welcome Emails

[Lelio Fulgenzi]

When you build your filter, you might want to add a couple of things. This is based on feedback and experience…

The first, is an AND with (mail=*), this way, if they don’t have an email address, they don’t get created.
Also, AND with (!(memberOf=cn=<bypassgroupname>)), this way, for whatever reason, you can add someone to the bypass list and avoid errors.

My groups are created by machines. I can’t modify them. So, if someone out there has an issue, I add them to the bypass list and resolve later and cut down on email alerts.

Example, for some reason, people have used our corporate email address to get a webex account from another organization who has also enabled AD integration. Go figure.

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Thanks, I think we are going to assign the users to an AD group...

Confirming this. You can also build your AD/LDAP filter accordingly in your directory connector application. However, this is a one shot deal. The license template on AD group helps you send them to the right license pool.

Feel free to reach out if you want a 1:1 chat about this.

P.S. From feedback as well as observation, you’re looking at about 1hr per 10,000 records.

You must enable sso. You can sync licenses based on ad groups now if that helps your license issue.

Also, we have not yet enabled SSO, so unchecking the welcome email is not an option

Have  a customer with 20K+ users, want to enable directory synchronization, but am concerned it is going to send 20K emails to 15K users who will not be using Webex.

How do I avoid this?

Also, if all of them are licensed via template, how do we ensure users who never log in will not use a license?
