How to Set Up Slack Integration with Yoffix

The Yoffix Slack integration allows you to manage desk bookings, attendance statuses, and notifications directly inside Slack.

You can plan office days, confirm bookings, and receive updates without leaving your Slack workspace.

What the Slack Integration Does

Once configured, Yoffix in Slack allows you to:

  • Set your office or remote status

  • Book a desk directly from Slack

  • Receive booking confirmations and updates

  • Confirm or cancel bookings via check-in messages

  • View attendance overviews in Slack channels

All bookings remain synchronized with your Yoffix calendar.

How to Configure Slack

The integration operates via the Yoffix Slack app and bot.

Before users can access it:

  1. An admin must enable Slack under
    Settings → Integrations → Tools → Slack

  2. Click Add to Slack and authorize the connection

  3. Users must select Slack as their preferred notification channel in their profile

Once configured, the Yoffix app becomes available in Slack under Apps.

Check-In Function

If the check-in feature is enabled by your admin and Slack is set as your notification channel:

  • You will receive a message one hour before your booking

  • You can confirm or cancel with one click

  • If no action is taken within one hour, the booking is automatically canceled

This helps prevent no-shows and keeps office occupancy accurate.
