Automations

Use presence data to automate desk booking confirmations, notifications, and meeting room check-ins.

Pult Presence powers three automations that connect attendance detection to your workspace management workflows.

Prerequisites

Before enabling automations, ensure:

Presence detection is working -- Either the Pult Agent or WiFi Presence is configured and detecting users.
Presence locations are linked to offices -- In Pult Workplace, connect your offices to the corresponding presence locations. This link tells the automation which presence location corresponds to which office's desk bookings.

Automatically confirm desk bookings when the employee is detected in the office.

Notify employees who are present in the office but haven't booked a desk.

Check attendee presence for meeting room bookings and release unused rooms.

Desk automations (booking confirmation and missing booking notifications) are configured in Settings → Presence → General Settings → Automation Settings. Each automation has a configurable trigger time -- the earliest time of day the automation starts checking.
Meeting room automation is configured separately in the Pult Rooms settings.
Automations run periodically after the trigger time. They are not real-time -- there is a short delay between presence detection and automation execution.
Each notification is sent at most once per day per user to avoid spam.
