API v1 ReferenceAbsences

Creates a new absence.

User planning data permissions are required if the calling user is not the owner of the absence or admin. The startOn and endOn get rounded to 00:00:00, 12:00:00, or 23:59:59 in UTC. These values can be used to set a half-day (pre or post mid-day) absence, or absences that start or end at mid-day. The end date needs to be the same or after the start date.
