Grafana Incident & Response Management (IRM) has introduced a feature that integrates Google Calendar out-of-office events with Grafana OnCall, aimed at ensuring seamless on-call shift coverage while providing engineers with peace of mind during personal time. This integration allows Grafana OnCall to access and monitor Google Calendar events to automatically generate shift swap requests when there's a scheduling conflict. Users can configure which on-call schedules are eligible for this feature and can manually request shifts if necessary. The integration is designed to simplify the on-call scheduling process, reduce stress, and enhance user experience, with additional features like web-based scheduling and a mobile app. This functionality is automatically available in Grafana Cloud, while users of Grafana OnCall OSS must follow specific steps to enable it.
