  command: /talenthr-timeoff [optional: time_off_type]

Alternatively, enter a specific type of time off only (2). 

• Lookup employee information from the employee directory(“People”)
  command: /talenthr-whois [email or name]

Find basic information about people in your company. Search for anyone by name (1) or email (2).

• See who in the organization is out of the office today and/or tomorrow 
  command: /talenthr-whosout [optional: today | tomorrow]

Check who is out today (1) or tomorrow (2) in the entire company. If you don’t specify the day, you will get results about today only. 

• See who's out of the office from your team or peers
  command: /talenthr-whosout [optional: today | tomorrow] [optional: team | peers]
