Shiftbase MCP by usefulapi

WRITE: put one employee on the schedule for one date (a single, non-recurring shift) in a team, with a shift type, start/end time and break. The employee is notified only when notify is true. POST /rosters.

WRITE: add an absence (leave/time-off request) for an employee. By default it is a Pending request for a manager to review; status Approved books it directly (needs the approve-absence permission). The hours per day come from Shiftbase's own expected-hours calculation (the same as shiftbase_get_expected_absence_hours). Needs the Basic plan. POST /absentees.

WRITE: approve or decline an absence request. Reads the absence first and sends it back unchanged except for the status (needs the approve-absence permission). PUT /absentees/{absenteeId}.

WRITE: change a scheduled shift: move it to another date, time, employee, team or shift type, or change its break or note. Reads the shift first and sends it back with your changes. For a recurring shift, scope says what changes: "occurrence" (this date only), "sequence" (this date and all later ones) or "original" (the whole series; also the right scope for a non-recurring shift). PUT /rosters/{occurrenceId}/{scope}.

One absence by id, with the per-day hours and who reviewed it. GET /absentees/{absenteeId}.

The Shiftbase account this API key belongs to: company, country, time zone, working-day start/end, plan facts. GET /accounts.

Employee availability (available / unavailable, all day or from a time) for a date range of at most 62 days, from Shiftbase's availability report. Needs the Basic plan and the "View reports" permission. POST /reports/availability (export json; reads only).

How many hours an absence would cost for an employee, per day and in total (from the schedule or the contract, per the absence policy), for a period of at most 366 days. Changes nothing. POST /absentees/expected.

One scheduled shift by its occurrence_id, with the employee, shift type, team and who created/changed it. GET /rosters/{occurrenceId}.

One timesheet by id, with its clocked breaks. GET /timesheets/{timesheetId}.

One employee by user id or email address, with teams and departments. GET /users/{identifier}.

List absence types (e.g. Holiday, Sick, Unpaid leave): name, unit (hours or days), whether it costs leave hours, colour. Their ids are the absence_type_id for absences. GET /absentee_options.

List absences (leave, sick leave, other time off) overlapping a date range of at most 366 days: employee, absence type, start/end date, hours or days, status Approved/Declined/Pending and who reviewed it. Needs the Basic plan. GET /absentees.

List the schedule (rosters = shifts assigned to employees) for a date range of at most 62 days: date, start/end time, break, employee, team, shift type, department, published state, hours and cost. Each item's occurrence_id identifies it for shiftbase_get_roster and shiftbase_update_roster. GET /rosters.

List shift types (the templates a scheduled shift uses: name, short name, default start/end time and break), optionally for one department. Their ids are the shift_id for shiftbase_create_roster. GET /shifts.

List teams (the rows of the schedule within a department), optionally for one department. GET /teams.

List timesheets (worked hours: clock in/out, breaks, total, status Approved/Declined/Pending, wage and surcharges) for a date range of at most 62 days. GET /timesheets.
