How Can Admins Enable Slack Integration?

Before employees can start using Slack to manage their time and leaves, the Global Admin must install the Slack app for your tenant. Here’s how admins can do it:

  1. Navigate to “Apps” on Keka.
  2. Select "Slack".
  3. Click on "Install" to enable the integration.

Once this is done, employees can easily connect Slack to Keka.

Getting Started for Users

To get started with the Slack integration, employees need to follow these steps:

  1. Navigate to the “Me” tab in the Keka app.
  2. Go to Apps and select "Connect" to link Slack to your Keka account.

Once connected, you’ll be able to manage your attendance and leave directly from Slack.

Clock In and Clock Out with Ease

Once Slack is successfully connected, time tracking becomes a breeze. Here’s how employees can clock in and out:

  1. Open Slack and navigate to the Keka app under the Apps section.
  2. Go to the Messages sub-tab.
  3. Enter the command "/clock-in" to clock in or "/clock-out" to clock out.




    You’ll receive a confirmation message as soon as you’ve clocked in or out, and the details will be automatically logged to your profile. It’s that simple!

Check Your Leave Balances in Seconds

Curious about your available leave balances? You can now quickly check them through Slack:

  1. In the Messages sub-tab of Slack, enter the command “fetch my leave stats”.
  2. Keka will retrieve and display your available leave balances instantly.




This gives employees the ability to stay informed and in control of their time off, ensuring that you can plan your leave with ease.
