Integration troubleshooting

Slack troubleshooting

Common issues

  • The /vacation command says it doesn't recognize me — your Slack user mapping isn't set; ask an admin to map you in Integrations → Slack.
  • Approval messages aren't appearing — the bot must be invited to the approval channel (`/invite @hellonomad`).
  • Status not updating during leave — re-authorize the user-token scope in Integrations → Slack.
  • Mention auto-replies not firing — the bot must be present in the channel where the mention happens.

Reinstall

In Integrations → Slack click "Reinstall" — runs the OAuth flow again with current scopes.

Uninstall

In Slack: Settings → Manage apps → Hello Nomad → Remove. All bot/user tokens are revoked and deleted from our database within seconds.

Microsoft Teams troubleshooting

Common issues

  • Adaptive Card buttons not working — your Teams admin must enable "Sideloading custom apps" or install the official package.
  • Notifications going to the wrong channel — verify the channel mapping in Integrations → Teams.

Reinstall

Remove the app from Teams admin center, then re-add via Integrations → Teams.

Uninstall

Teams admin center → Apps → Hello Nomad → Block / Remove.

Google Calendar troubleshooting

Common issues

  • Approved leave isn't appearing on Google Calendar — verify the user has connected Google in user settings.
  • Holidays trimming the wrong dates — check the location's holiday calendar selection.

Reinstall

In user settings → Connections → Google: disconnect, then reconnect to refresh OAuth scopes.

Uninstall

In user settings → Connections → Google: click "Disconnect". Or revoke at https://myaccount.google.com/permissions.

Outlook troubleshooting

Common issues

  • Calendar events not syncing — verify the user has Outlook connected with calendar scopes.
  • Auto-reply not flipping on — Outlook personal accounts: confirm MailboxSettings access was granted on connect.

Reinstall

In user settings → Connections → Outlook: disconnect and reconnect.

Uninstall

Microsoft account → Privacy → Apps and services that can access your data → Hello Nomad → Remove.

Jira troubleshooting

Common issues

  • Tickets aren't reassigning when leave starts — confirm the Jira Forge app is installed in your Atlassian site.
  • Reassignment skipped — your Jira user account must be linked to the Hello Nomad member with the same email.

Reinstall

Reinstall the Forge app: `cd packages/jira-forge && forge install --upgrade`.

Uninstall

In Atlassian admin → Apps → Hello Nomad → Uninstall.
