Overview

Firefly integrates with Webex to provide seamless communication and notification capabilities. This integration enables teams to receive infrastructure alerts, policy violations, and other critical events directly in their Webex spaces.

Prerequisites

  • A Webex account with administrative access

  • Appropriate permissions to create integrations

  • Access to Firefly's integration settings

Setup Procedure

  1. Install the Firefly Webex integration:

    • Visit to authorize the integration

    • Select Accept to authorize the integration

  2. In Firefly, select Settings > Integrations

  3. Select Add New > Webex

  4. Enter a descriptive name in the Nickname field

  5. (Optional) Create a new label for better organization

  6. Select Next to complete the setup

Features Enabled

  • Direct Messaging: Send notifications to specific Webex users

  • Space Notifications: Post alerts to designated Webex spaces

  • Rich Message Formatting: Enhanced message formatting for better readability

  • Team Collaboration: Enable team-wide communication about infrastructure events

  • Real-time Updates: Instant notification delivery

Best Practices

  • Use descriptive names for your integration to easily identify its purpose

  • Create dedicated Webex spaces for different types of alerts

  • Set up appropriate notification rules to avoid message overload

  • Regularly review and update integration settings

  • Configure message templates for consistent alert formatting

  • Implement proper access controls for Webex spaces

Troubleshooting

  1. For authorization issues:

    • Verify that you have the necessary Webex permissions

    • Check if the integration is properly authorized

    • Ensure your Webex account is active

  2. For notification delivery issues:

    • Verify the integration is active in both Firefly and Webex

    • Check Webex's message logs

    • Review Firefly's notification settings

  3. For general integration issues:

    • Confirm network connectivity between Firefly and Webex

    • Check Webex's status page for any service disruptions

    • Review integration logs in both systems
