For customers of our Slack integration.
Our Slack integration supports a growing list of features allowing you to access information and perform actions relating to your Built account, all from within the Slack command line.
Before you can use the /built slash command within Slack, an administrator must first authorize the Built for Teams app within Slack. Once the app is authorized, you can connect your personal Slack account to connect to your personal Built account by typing /built and clicking the provided link.
Once the app is authorized and your personal Built account is connected to your Slack account, you can use the following list of supported Slack commands:
Supported Commands
Clock In/Out
Type /built help time to learn how to clock in, clock out, or check the status of your personal time clock. Note that this command requires the Timesheets feature within Built.
View a List of Your PTO Accounts
Type /built help accounts to learn how to view a list of PTO accounts available to you.
View Your Account Balances
Type /built help balance to learn how to view a list of each PTO account and its current balance.
You can optionally add the name of a specific account to see more granular balance details for that account, like this: /built balance vacation.
Submit a PTO Request
Type /built help request to learn how to submit a PTO request from within Slack. There are a number of options available to help you define your request. Examples are provided in the help instructions.
When you submit a PTO request via Slack, you'll be asked to confirm your request. After you confirm, an email will be sent to the appropriate person(s) just as if you'd submitted the request via the Built for Teams web application. At this time, Built for Teams does not yet provide any notifications via Slack but that feature will be coming soon.
View a Coworker's Status
Type /built help status to learn how to check a particular person's schedule.
Submit Feedback to Built
Type /built help feedback to learn how to submit feedback or suggestions to the Built for Teams support team.
Please contact our customer success team for additional assistance.
