Time off API: filter who's out by working policy types
3 months ago
The Time off 'Who's out' API now supports filtering time off requests based on the policy's activity type.
What’s new:
A new includeWorkingRequests boolean query parameter has been added to the Who’s out API, where:
- true (default, backward-compatible with existing behavior): Includes all time off requests, including WFH, business travel, and other working-type policies (
activity=workTime) - false: Excludes working-type requests and returns only actual absences such as sick leave, holidays, or unpaid leave (
activity=paidTimeofforunpaidTimeoff)
To learn more about policy activity types, see Get Policy type details.
Why it matters:
- Lets you distinguish between true time off and remote or on-the-go work
- Reduces confusion in calendars, dashboards, and workflows that rely on absence data
- Supports more accurate availability tracking across teams
- Improves integration with tools that need a clear picture of who's fully out versus just working remotely
