# Import holidays with calendar feeds

> Import your team's time-off from any calendar or HRIS that provides an iCal feed

If your calendar system or HRIS provides an iCal feed, you can import your team's personal holidays (time-off, vacation, PTO) into incident.io. We'll then surface those holidays alongside your On-call schedule shifts.

<Info>
  If you're on the Enterprise plan and use Workday, HiBob, or BambooHR, you can connect them directly instead of managing a calendar feed. See [Workday](/on-call/hris-workday), [HiBob](/on-call/hris-hibob), or [BambooHR](/on-call/hris-bamboohr). Otherwise, a calendar feed works on any plan.

## Add a calendar feed

To get started, you'll need a URL for the calendar feed that contains your team's holidays. We provide tips on how some popular systems let you set up calendar feed subscriptions [below](#getting-a-calendar-feed-url).

<Note>You'll need the **Manage vacation user feeds** permission to add or edit calendar feeds.</Note>

1. Head to **Settings > Integrations** and select [Calendar feeds](https://app.incident.io/~/settings/integrations/calendar_feeds)

2. Click **Add calendar feed** and enter the URL of the calendar feed you've generated in your HRIS or calendar system, and a name for the feed.

3. That's it. Your calendar feed is parsed and ready to be used within schedules! If we find a holiday that matches a responder on your schedule, we'll surface that event in the timeline view.

We match users to holiday events by email where they're listed as an invitee on the event. When a feed doesn't include emails, we fall back to matching by name. Name matching is best-effort, so users might not always match perfectly.

If you're not seeing a holiday alongside your On-call schedule as expected, please [let us know](mailto:support@incident.io) and we'll take a look!

Once your feed is set up, see [Acting on time off](/on-call/acting-on-holidays) to arrange cover.

<Warning>
  Google Calendar Embed URLs (which look like `https://calendar.google.com/calendar/embed?src=...`) are for displaying a calendar on a webpage and won't work as a calendar feed. The correct public iCal URL will look like `https://calendar.google.com/calendar/ical/.../basic.ics`.
</Warning>

<Info>
  Other systems may support calendar feeds, as we don't have access to all their documentation. If you use a system which isn't listed here, and are successful with this feature, please [let us know](mailto:support@incident.io)! We'd love to know how you end up using it.
