WebEx is a widely used platform for video conferencing, enabling users to communicate with others from afar. A key functionality of WebEx is its capability to allow incoming calls directly through the platform. In this piece, we’ll explore how to configure your WebEx account to handle incoming calls and how to respond to them once they arrive.
Setting Up Your WebEx Account
The first step in getting WebEx to call you is to set up your account. If you haven’t already done so, go to the WebEx website and create an account. Once you have created your account, log in and navigate to the settings page. From there, select the option to receive calls directly from WebEx.
Configuring Your Phone Number
The next step is to configure your phone number. WebEx will need to know which phone number you want to use to receive calls. Enter your phone number in the appropriate field and make sure it is correct. You may also need to verify your phone number by entering a code that WebEx sends to you via text message.
Setting Up Call Forwarding
If you want to receive calls on multiple devices, you will need to set up call forwarding. This allows you to receive calls on your computer, tablet, or smartphone. To do this, navigate to the settings page and select the option to enable call forwarding. From there, enter the phone numbers of the devices you want to receive calls on.
Answering Calls
When a call comes in, you will receive a notification on your device. To answer the call, simply click on the notification and follow the prompts. You may need to enter a passcode or confirm that you want to accept the call before it connects.
Conclusion
Getting WebEx to call you is a simple process that can make your video conferencing experience even more convenient. By following these steps, you can set up your account to receive calls and answer them from any device. With WebEx, staying connected with colleagues and clients has never been easier.
