Yes. Presence can add a broad, opt-in availability badge to an existing staff profile and optionally offer a rate-limited Digital Knock.

Make participation explicit

Each participating person controls their own connections and whether their status appears on the public staff page.

Publish broad states

A public badge should say Available, Available if needed, Unavailable, or Out of office—not expose event titles, exact return times, or precise location.

Offer a respectful next step

Digital Knock lets a visitor request attention without receiving private contact details. Rate limits help prevent repeated interruptions.

  1. Enable the organization’s public staff-page feature.
  2. Ask each staff member to opt in and confirm the broad status shown.
  3. Add the Presence badge script or markup to the matching staff profile.
  4. Test status changes and Digital Knock before publishing.
Short answerYes—publish a broad opt-in status badge, not the staff member’s calendar.
