Employee Tag Assignments - Aggregated
Tags provide additional information about a shift segment or a date cell in the schedule. Depending on the configuration, a tag can specify a work rule condition that the Scheduler considers, or a tag can specify no work rule and serve only as a visual reference for the manager.
Prerequisites
A person's person ID is the same as the personKey
and employee ID, and is not the same as the person number.
The person in this example has a person ID of 100 and a person number of 20190.
Example
In this example, we assign, verify, update, and delete a person's employee tag assignments.
Create or update assignments
The create request:
- uses
personIdentity
to identify the person using their person number - uses the
assignments
array to define the employee tags to assign - uses
effectiveDate
andexpirationDate
to define the effective date and the expiration date of the assignment
Example request
Call POST /v1/commons/persons/assignments/multi_upsert
with the following request payload.
[
{
"personIdentity": {
"personNumber": "20190"
},
"personAssignments": {
"employeeTags": {
"assignments": [
{
"employeeTag": {
"qualifier": "EmployeeTag1"
},
"effectiveDate": "2020-02-20",
"expirationDate": "2020-06-25"
}
]
}
}
}
]
Example response
A success response returns HTTP status code 200 and a response body similar to the following example.
[
{
"personIdentity": {
"personNumber": "20190"
},
"personAssignments": {
"employeeTags": {
"assignments": [
{
"employeeTag": {

},
"effectiveDate": "2020-02-20",
"expirationDate": "2020-06-25"
}
]
}
}
}
]
Verify assignments
You can use the bulk multi-read operation to verify assignments for multiple people at once.
Example request
To verify, call POST /v1/commons/persons/assignments/multi_read
with the following request payload.
{
"where": {
"employees": {
"key": "personNumber",
"values": [
"20190"
]
},
"personAssignments": [
"employeeTags"
]
}
}
Example response
A success response returns HTTP status code 200 and a response body similar to the following example.

"qualifier": "EmployeeTag1"
},
"effectiveDate": "2020-02-20",
"expirationDate": "2020-06-25"
}
]
}
}
}
]
Delete assignments
You can delete, or unassign, assignments. To delete our example's assignments, call POST /v1/commons/persons/assignments/multi_upsert
using the unAssignExisting
property.
Example request
Call POST /v1/commons/persons/assignments/multi_upsert
with the following request payload.
[
{
"personIdentity": {
"personNumber": "20190"
},
"personAssignments": {
"employeeTags": {
"unAssignExisting":true
}
}
}
]
Example response
A success response returns HTTP status code 200 and a response body similar to the following example.
[
{
"personIdentity": {
"personNumber": "20190"
},
"personAssignments": {
"employeeTags": {
"assignments": []
}
}
}
]
Note: You can verify that the assignments were deleted by calling POST /v1/commons/persons/assignments/multi_read
with a request payload specifying all of the affected person identities.
