Questions people ask
Is there an API or Slack integration?
Not yet. Webhooks exist for user events, but API keys are not issued yet. If you need an integration, tell us what for.
Can we use it for a team outside India?
Yes. Country, currency, timezone and date formats are set per company; the India statutory files are simply not used.

Yes. Sign-in can be limited to office IP addresses, sessions can be seen and ended, and an audit trail records changes.
