# Microsoft Teams - Workday Employee Assistant Agent

This Microsoft Teams bot enhances employee self-service by interpreting natural language messages to interact with Workday via API, delivering real-time information and automating HR tasks. The bot uses intelligent N8N agents to engage in dynamic conversations, ensuring it gathers sufficient details to fulfill user requests accurately. Initially focused on leave management, the bot is designed to expand into additional use cases like answering company policy and internal information queries.

## Key Use Cases

-   **Time-Off Requests**  
    Users can request time off directly in Teams, with the bot prompting for necessary details before submitting the request to Workday.
    
-   **Future Capabilities**  
    Planned expansions include answering internal company information questions, clarifying company policies, and more.
    

## How It Works

The bot leverages N8N agents to parse natural language in Teams messages, engaging in back-and-forth dialogue with employees to clarify requests. Once sufficient information is collected, it queries Workday’s API to retrieve or submit data, ensuring accurate and efficient responses.
