Which feeds are available to me? 

In order to establish which feeds are available to you, follow these steps:

  1. Login to your WhosOff account.
  2. Click on the "Tools" tab.
  3. Under Calendar Feeds there will be a list of the feeds that are available for you to subscribe to (as shown below).
If there are no feeds listed on this screen you can contact your Super User and request a feed created by them (as in our Knowledgebase Article)

How often are the feeds updated?

Feeds are automatically updated by Outlook. In our experience, Outlook collects the data approximately once an hour.
