Cisco Cisco TelePresence Management Suite (TMS) Version 15 Installation Guide
In a non-SSO scenario, a WebEx username and password must be manually added for each Cisco
TMS/Smart Scheduler user that will book with WebEx. Administrators can add this in Cisco TMS, or users
can add credentials themselves through the Smart Scheduler settings.

How Smart Scheduler works
1. When a domain user signs into Smart Scheduler and books a meeting, the request is passed to Cisco
TMS.
2. This communication goes through the Cisco TelePresence Management Suite Extension Booking API
(Cisco TMSBA).
3. The Cisco TMS user entered during installation of Cisco TMSPE is the service user for Smart Scheduler.
This user creates the booking in Cisco TMS on behalf of the Cisco TMSPE user.
If the Cisco TMSPE user does not already exist in Cisco TMS, it will be created at the same time as the
booking.

booking.
4. When the booking is complete, Cisco TMS sends an email confirmation to the user who booked the
meeting. The message containing meeting details including route, scheduled systems, WebEx
information, and so on, may then be forwarded to the other meeting participants.
Cisco TMS also sends email to the service user for Smart Scheduler when a booking is created or
updated. For more information on the service user and how to set it up not to receive email, see
