Prohibit fake users via LMS integration (Webex Education Connector)

One might think that the advantage of an LMS integration (Moodle in our case) is that users are automatically logged into Webex with their real data (name, email address), but students still have the possibility to change their data. After all, the registration form is pre-filled with the data from Moodle. However, it can be changed to fake data. For mobile devices, the user data from the LMS is not forwarded at all.

This increases the risk of misuse and makes it more difficult to evaluate attendance. At our university we have classes with over 600 students.

We would like to see a better integration so that no fake users can join Meetings and Events.

I have submitted a case (689575407) but unfortunately it got closed.

    Hi Rachel! That's unfortunately no option for us because students don't have an Webex account, only teachers.

    Hi Phillip, thanks for the feedback!

    Has your school enabled "Require account to join" via the admin panel? This will force users to login with a Webex account associated to your Webex site. Please let me know if that solves the need for you.
