I'd like to be able to set up a notification before going on call that is 1 week before I go on call

I go on call rarely, like once in 2 months, and would like a bigger heads up than the current max of 48 hours. That way I have more notice to not schedule work or personal things during my on call period. My shift starts on Monday morning, so a max of 48 hours would email me on Saturday morning, and I’d rather get the notification and take action during the prior business week hours.

Hey Michael,

At this time, 48 hours is the maximum amount of time that can be configured for On-Call Notifications. I’m happy to pass your suggestion along to the product team though!

+1 to advance notifications with a longer timeline. It’s very useful to manage thrash caused by oversight when members of the team take time off.
