Sana

What it does

Sana from Workday takes in employee requests, questions, and business context from within Workday and supported workplace tools such as Slack, Microsoft Teams, and Claude. It produces answers, recommended next steps, drafted outputs, and completed tasks, coordinating the relevant agents, systems, and people. Sensitive actions can be shown to a reviewer and held for approval before anything changes.

People use Sana to ask for help, find work that needs attention, and move requests toward completion. It carries business context across supported systems and applies Workday security roles, delegations and approval chains. The product page also presents Sana Agent Builder and Agent System of Record; those broader capabilities depend on the services enabled for an organization and should not be assumed part of every Sana deployment.

Sana suits employees and enterprise teams using Workday and connected business systems. Start with a demo to establish whether the relevant Sana experience is available for your organization, which applications it can reach, and what licensing it requires. Administrators need to configure access and approval rules. Sensitive actions can require review before execution, and availability should be checked for the particular tenant and integration.

Before you choose

• Sana applies existing Workday permissions and approvals, so its results depend on how well those business controls are configured.
• Sensitive actions can require human approval, so organizations should define which actions need review before rollout.
• Confirm which Sana, agent-building and governance capabilities are enabled and licensed for your organization.
