Instead of importing the calendars via iCal files by hand you could directly use the API of api-feiertage.de

This might be a good approach for German customers, unfortunately every other country is missing, which would limitate this integration a lot.

other countries can use a non-free api - https://holidayapi.com/countries

Instead of asking for a built-in integration one could easily automate this with Checkmk's REST API. It already has endpoints to manage time periods.

Build a script and publish it to the Checkmk exchange.

There now exists https://github.com/HeinleinSupport/check_mk_extensions/blob/cmk2.2/helper/bin/timeperiods.py which works with our Checkmk API wrapper https://github.com/HeinleinSupport/check_mk_extensions/tree/cmk2.2/check_mk_api starting with Checkmk 2.2.0p9.

It needs the following werks:

For anyone else looking for the timeperiods.py Robert mentioned: it has been moved to its own package -> https://github.com/HeinleinSupport/check_mk_extensions/tree/cmk2.2/holidays
