Prerequisites

To use the Cisco Spaces - Partner Dashboard, you will need the following:

Partner Dashboard Credentials

The partner dashboard offers Cisco Spaces partners a single location to view, update, add, and test their applications. It also provides the ability to extend the Cisco Spaces platform capabilities through the partner ecosystem. As a partner, you can access location data collected by the wireless access points and use this data to extend your business applications.

You will need a Cisco Spaces - partner account to access the Partner Dashboard. You can use your Cisco Spaces account that is enabled for Cisco Spaces - Partner Dashboard access to log in to the Cisco Spaces - Partner Dashboard.

Note

If you do not have your Cisco Spaces credentials or if your Cisco Spaces account is not enabled for partner dashboard access, you can still login to the Partner Dashboard. Once you login to the partner dashboard, choose your account type from the following options on the self-onboarding pop-up window that is displayed:

  • I want to create apps for my organization: Choose this option and click Continue if you want to create apps internal to your organisation only. This option does not allow you to publish your apps to the Partner App Center.

  • I'm a developer who provides solutions to Cisco DNA Spaces customers: Choose this option and click Continue if you want to create apps and publish them to the Partner App Center for global customers.

To request for a Cisco Spaces - partner account, do the following:

  1. Navigate to the Cisco Spaces - Partner Dashboard, and click Partner with us. The Contact Cisco DNA Spaces team section is displayed.

  2. Click the appropriate tab from the options listed below and enter your details in the form that is displayed:

    • Application or Solution Partner: This is the default tab.

    • Device Vendor Partner

    • Channel Partner

    • Existing Cisco Spaces Customer

  3. Depending on the tab you choose, click Submit or Contact Me.

The Cisco Spaces team will contact you to help you with your credentials for the Cisco Spaces - Partner Dashboard.

Network Requirements

Your network needs to either be a Cisco controller-based (Catalyst or AireOS series) network or a Cisco Meraki network. If it is a Cisco Catalyst or Cisco AireOS series controller-based network, you will also need a Cisco Spaces Connector. For more information, go to the Cisco Spaces Setup Guide.
