Holiday Calendar

Holiday calendars let you define non-working days so that scheduled workflows skip those dates automatically. Without this feature, you'd need to manually disable and re-enable schedules around holidays, creating risk of missed or unwanted executions. You create a calendar by specifying the year, time zone, weekly days off, and individual holiday dates with optional tags to identify each one. You can then attach the calendar to any workflow schedule to ensure automations respect your organization's working calendar. Calendars can be renewed for the next year, copied to create variations, and edited as holiday dates change. This ensures your scheduled automations align with your business calendar without manual intervention.
