Messages

Messages are where you chat with colleagues. We keep these messages secure so you can feel confident sharing your work ideas in Webex Teams.

Spaces

Your group work takes place in spaces, either in groups or indirect messages with another person. They display prominently so you can get to them whenever you need to. Your most recently active spaces are at the top. If anyone has added you to a new team or space, you'll see it here too. When someone's posted a new message in the space, you'll see the bolded space name.

Create a Space

Just click , and select Contact a Person to create a direct message space between you and just one other person, or select Create a Space to start a group conversation.

Space Activity Menu

Whenever you're in a space, click the activity menu to get access to all the different activities you can do:

Message—send a message to just one person or to many people in a space.
Call/Meet—make a direct call to a person. You'll see Meet, if you're starting an instant meeting with everyone in the space.
Schedule/Meeting—create a meeting from the space or get a list of meetings already scheduled for the space.
People—see who's in the space or Webex Teams meeting.
Files—find your shared files, photos, and whiteboard content.
Whiteboard—create and share content on whiteboards.
My threads—see threads you are a part of.

Navigation Menu, Filters, Files, and More

Navigation

Switch easily among your message, team, call, and meeting views. Messages appear by default, but your teams, calls, and meetings are just a click away. When you have unread messages in your spaces or teams, you'll see counters next to Spaces and Teams .

Status and Preferences

Click your profile picture to update your picture or name, access your settings and preferences, and set your status. If you have some important work to finish or are on a call, let people know that you don't want to be disturbed: whether that's for a few minutes or an entire day is up to you.

Search and Filters

Search through the history of your conversations to find people you're talking to, spaces you're in, messages you received, and files you need. Or, filter messages to see the ones that matter most to you. Just click Search to search and see the available filters.
