How to

How to see who's off today

Two ways to know who's away. A daily digest posts automatically to the channel you chose at setup, and anyone can type /whosoff at any time to get the answer immediately — useful before you assign work, book a meeting, or wonder why someone hasn't replied.

Takes about 1 min

Steps

  1. Read the daily digest

    It posts automatically to the channel picked during setup, so the information arrives without anyone asking.

  2. Or type /whosoff for an immediate answer

    Anyone in the workspace can run it, any time.

Worth knowing

  • The digest channel is chosen at installation. Somewhere the whole team already reads works better than a dedicated channel nobody opens.
  • Only approved time off appears — pending requests aren't shown as confirmed absence.

Questions

Can anyone check who's off, or just admins?

Anyone in the workspace can type /whosoff, and the daily digest posts to a shared channel. It's meant to be visible to the team rather than restricted.

Does it show pending requests?

It shows approved time off. A request that hasn't been decided yet isn't confirmed absence, so it doesn't appear as such.
