Using Joanbot on Slack

With Joanbot on Slack, you are able to book a room or resource on the same platform you use to talk with your coworkers.

As soon as you agree on a date and time for a meeting with your colleague, simply send a message to Joan to book you a room on that particular date and it will be taken care of.

The Joanbot uses natural language processing, so you can talk to it the same you would with your coworkers. However, for best results, be as descriptive and direct as possible.

Here are a few command examples:

  • "Get me a room for tomorrow at 14:00"
  • "Hey Joan, book the war room on July 31st at 09:30 for 2 hours"
  • "Book me a room for June 31st from 10:00 until 15:00"
