Subscribe to Your Metarelic People Calendars

Automatically sync approved leave and employee anniversaries to your calendar

Overview

Metarelic People provides calendar subscription links that allow you to automatically sync key workforce events directly into your calendar application.

You can subscribe to:

  1. Leave Calendar – approved leave requests only

  2. Anniversaries Calendar – birthdays and work anniversaries

Once you are subscribed, your calendar will update automatically whenever changes are made in Metarelic People.

What You Need

Your administrator (or Metarelic People support) will provide subscription URLs similar to:

  • Leave Calendar: https://app.metarelicpeople.com/calendars/{token}/leave.ics

  • Anniversaries Calendar: https://app.metarelicpeople.com/calendars/{token}/anniversaries.ics

⚠️ These links contain an access token and should be treated like a password. Do not share them publicly.
