}Notes
- The connection's token is the actor: a bot token only sees the spaces the bot has been added to, and a personal or integration token acts as that user.
- The token's own identity joins the new space; add everyone else with webex.create_membership.
See Create Room run in a workflow.
In a technical demo we add the Cisco Webex connection, drop the node on the canvas and let Workflow Health pre-flight it before the first real run.
