Note: half_day='morning'/'afternoon' requires a leave type with leave_unit 'half_days' — on a full-day-only 'days' leave type it is rejected. Employment period: the series is created all-or-nothing, so a single occurrence that starts before employment_start_date or ends after employment_end_date rejects the whole series with 400 rather than skipping that occurrence. An occurrence straddling either boundary is rejected too, never truncated. The comparison is on calendar days, so both boundary dates are themselves bookable and a null boundary means open ended on that side. ## OpenAPI ````yaml https://api.absentify.com/api/v1/openapi.json post /requests/recurring openapi: 3.1.0 info: title: absentify CRUD API description: OpenAPI compliant REST API version: 1.0.0 servers: - url: https://api.absentify.com/api/v1 security: [] tags: - name: Departments - name: Leave types - name: Members - name: Requests - name: Public holidays - name: Workspace - name: Absences - name: Allowance Management externalDocs: url: https://absentify.com/docs/en/api-reference paths: /requests/recurring: post: tags: - Requests summary: Create recurring requests description: >- Create multiple recurring requests based on a recurrence pattern.
