Create an event

Important note: Shift-based schedules use the V3 API and are not compatible with V2 automations. To create automations for Shift-Based Schedules, you need to:

  1. Update your automations to use the V3 API for all new shift-based schedules
  2. Keep the V2 endpoint for your existing schedules

An upgrade tool for existing schedules is coming soon; your legacy schedules will keep working in the meantime. Learn more.

Create a new event that defines when and how users are on-call within a rotation.

Constraints:

  • Maximum 5 events per rotation
  • Events within a rotation cannot overlap
  • effective_since must be in the future (past values are clamped to now)
  • All users referenced in assignment_strategy.members must exist and belong to the account

Create custom shifts POST

<!-- theme: info --> > **Important note:** Shift-based schedules use the V3 API and are not compatible with V2 automations. **To create automations for Shift-Based Schedules, you need to:** > > 1. **Update your automations** to use the V3 API for all new shift-based schedules > 2. **Keep the V2 endpoint** for your existing schedules > > An upgrade tool for existing schedules is coming soon; your legacy schedules will keep working in the meantime. [Learn more](https://support.pagerduty.com/main/docs/shift-based-schedules-api-upgrade-examples). Create one or more custom shifts for a schedule. Custom shifts are ad-hoc one-off coverage periods that exist outside of rotation events. Each custom shift requires exactly one assignment.

Create overrides POST

[Learn more](https://support.pagerduty.com/main/docs/shift-based-schedules-api-upgrade-examples). Create one or more overrides for a schedule. An override temporarily replaces a scheduled on-call member with a different member for a specific time period. Each override must reference either a `rotation_id` or a `custom_shift_id` (not both). The overriding member must belong to the account. **Note:** The create response wraps the result in an `overrides` array. Single-resource endpoints (get, update) wrap in `override` (singular).
