Having difficulty uploading your Excel template with birthday and/or work anniversary dates? Download the template in Settings, Celebrations, fill in the missing dates, and upload it again with Upload Completed Template.

Who can use this: Workspace Owners and Admins on the Basic plan and above, or on any plan during the free trial. Works the same for Slack and Microsoft Teams workspaces.
