Absence instances

The API provides access to absence instances as you can see them in a person’s day details in myProtime. These absence “instances” will just be called “absences”; everything else will be named more specifically, e.g., absence definitions and absence requests.

Tip

Check the Swagger page for more technical information on the endpoints.
