Team collaboration API for messaging, meetings, and file sharing

Overview

Cisco Spark API provides RESTful endpoints for core team collaboration features: messaging (room management, message sending/receiving), meeting scheduling/recording, file sharing, and user/team administration. Responses are in JSON format. Use cases include integrating Spark chat into custom enterprise apps, automating meeting setup workflows, syncing team data with CRM systems, building collaborative dashboards, and enabling cross-platform communication tools for remote teams. It supports secure OAuth 2.0 authentication for access to sensitive team data.
