Is there a way to set up a calendar month rotation?

[Tracy Green]

Hello,

My team uses a calendar month rotation for off hours support -- January, February, etc.  Is it possible to do this with an OpsGenie rotation or is a 4 week rotation the closest we can get?

Hi @Tracy Green ,

Setting rotations to the calendar month is not possible at this time. Like you mentioned, the closest thing to this would be configuring a custom rotation to 4 weeks, or 30 days, or something like that.

Otherwise you could create a rotation for each month with the on-call user, and have the Starts on / Ends on dates align with the month that user is on-call:

We do have an open feature request for this that I've added you to. The ticket to reference is TARDIS-480; Ability to Define Monthly Rotation Type in Schedules.

Since our tickets are not public, we'll reach out if/when there are any updates. Let us know if you have any other questions, or if we can help with anything else!

Is there any update on TARDIS-480?  Being able to define monthly rotations would be extremely helpful for us as well.

Hi @Adam Korpi ,

No update as of now on the monthly rotation feature request. If/when we have an update, we'll reach out here!

Hello,

we need to define Monthly Rotation Type in schedules too.

Please, give priority to this development requirement.

Thanks

Hi @Jiří Janda ,

It's not possible to define a Monthly rotation type at this time. I just opened a public feature request that can followed here: https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/OPSGENIE-462

The more votes / watchers on a feature request will typically gain more traction with engineering to implement a feature request.
