What is Workday Assistant?
Workday Assistant is Workday’s purpose-built chatbot that can help you complete common tasks, answer questions, and navigate around Workday. It makes interacting with Workday as simple as starting a conversation!
How does it work?
When you sign in to Workday, you will see a small blue icon in the lower right corner of your homepage; click it to open a chat window with Assistant and the icon next to the notifications bell. Workday Assistant is available in desktop or mobile.
