absences

Creates an absence.

Changed on

Creates an absence with dates rounded to 00:00:00, 12:00:00, or 23:59:59 UTC to support full-day and half-day periods. The end date must be the same as or later than the start date, and overlapping absences are rejected unless the provider allows them.

         <Check title="Required Permissions" icon="key">The user must own the absence, be an admin, or have `user-planning-data:write` permission.</Check>
