Webex Meetings shared components from the latest updates

What are shared components?

Shared components are common features that are delivered to both slow channel and latest channel sites each month. All sites automatically receive updates to the Webex components delivered by the cloud, such as Webex site pages, meeting integrations, APIs, the mobile app, the web app, and site administration.

As a slow channel customer, you’ve chosen to keep the desktop meeting application on a specific supported slow channel version. You will not see changes to your in-meeting experience, like those added to latest channel sites, unless your site upgrades to a newer desktop app version.

The following are the new shared component updates delivered to slow channel sites:

Changes in retention storage policy for Webex Meetings

Webex is removing the option to retain post-meeting data (recording and transcripts) for an indefinite period.

If you have the pro-pack offer, these changes come into effect from March 2023 and are completed in July 2023.

Webex Meetings sites to get user profile data from Webex Identity

When a Control Hub managed site is updated with this feature, user profile data for that meeting site is acquired from the Webex Identity in Control Hub rather than it being specific to each meeting site. Each site does a one-time sync as part of this switching to Webex Identity as the source for user profile data.
