Start Webex Meeting by Bash Script

Do you have a dedicated WebEx room for this or would the user be creating their own personal room? Either way, you could open a specific WebEx URL for either of those options to get things started.

So we would have the user launch a personal room to start the meeting with the help desk then.

Assuming the username is something you can grab from the machine and it matches the users' webex account then it's just a matter of using variables to create and open a URL in the user's window space. URL format should be like https://TENANT.webex.com/meet/USERNAME

@Rklaffo1 If it helps, the following script, also on GitHub, allows for Script Parameters to open a specified URL with a specified browser:
