Manage Your Status
Manage Your Status
Your "Status" is a textual indication of what you are currently doing. Your coworkers can see your current status so they will know if you are available or not prior to reaching out to you. You can select any of the built in statuses at any time or you can create custom statuses to use. You can also make a short message (recommended to be 28 characters or less) that appears underneath your status regardless of the status you are using.
The built in statuses include:
- Do not disturb
- Gone for the Day
- In a meeting
- In the office
- Mobile
- Working from home
