Notes

  • The connection's token is the actor: a bot token only sees the spaces the bot has been added to, and a personal or integration token acts as that user.
  • Presence fields (status, last_activity) come back only for people in your own organisation who have not turned status sharing off.

See Get Person run in a workflow.

In a technical demo we add the Cisco Webex connection, drop the node on the canvas and let Workflow Health pre-flight it before the first real run.
