What the Playvox WFM App for Slack does:

  • Allows Playvox WFM users to subscribe to certain events happening in Playvox WFM. These events may include:

    • Leave request updates and changes

    • Start of day events

    • Regular status reports

  • When subscribed to these events, they will push out a notification/alert through a Bot for Slack to the subscribed parties.

How does the Playvox WFM app integrate with Slack?

  • Using Slack’s oAuth scopes, a bot is configured to send messages/notifications based on the above configuration settings. In tech terms, certain events that occur on our side will be sent along a pipeline of sorts to Slack (depending on whether or not a user is subscribed to said event) which will then have the bot send an alert/message based on how it has been configured.

  • Please note our Playvox WFM App for Slack does not store or access any sensitive user data, it simply sends alerts and messages based on pre-configured events.
