Use Azure AI within Teams to automate absence management with the absentify bot.
With Azure AI integration, absentify’s Teams Bot enables employees to create absence requests using natural language commands, streamlining absence management and reducing manual input. For example, users can simply type, “Schedule a home office day for tomorrow,” and the bot will handle the request.
When this feature is enabled, Microsoft’s Azure AI services process natural language inputs to interpret commands and translate them into structured absence requests in absentify. The necessary data (e.g., leave type, dates, and duration) is securely transmitted to Azure AI for processing.
If the Azure AI integration is not activated, no data is sent to any AI models. All absence-related information remains securely stored in absentify’s database.
absentify takes data privacy and security seriously, ensuring compliance with international standards:
No AI interaction when disabled: If the integration is not enabled, no data is sent to any AI models, and all information remains within absentify’s database.
Scope of data sent to Azure AI: Only the necessary information to interpret and process the absence request (e.g., leave type, dates, and duration) is sent.
GDPR compliance: All data processing adheres to GDPR standards, ensuring user privacy.
Azure-hosted processing: Data is processed exclusively within Microsoft Azure’s secure environment, with no external storage or unauthorized access.
Plan requirement: Azure AI integration is available exclusively on the Plus Plan.
Secure by default: Without activation, no data is sent to any AI models, and all absence-related information remains securely stored in absentify’s database.
User experience: When enabled, employees can use natural language to interact with the Teams Bot for creating absence requests.
By enabling Azure AI integration, absentify enhances absence management with intuitive natural language capabilities while maintaining strict security and data privacy standards.
