  • wheniwork_list_shifts List scheduled shifts in a time window — who works when, where and in which position — optionally including open shifts and unpublished drafts. Answers "who is on on Friday?" and "what open shifts are left?". When I Work: GET /2/shifts.
  • wheniwork_get_shift Fetch one shift by id, including its breaks and publish state. When I Work: GET /2/shifts/{id}.
  • wheniwork_list_eligible_users_for_shift Find who could take an open shift — either an existing shift (shift_id) or a hypothetical one (start, end, position_id and location_id all required). When I Work: GET /2/shifts/eligible.
  • wheniwork_list_times List clocked time entries — actual hours worked, clock-in/out times, length and approval state. Use only_open to see who is clocked in right now. When I Work: GET /2/times.
  • wheniwork_list_time_off_requests List time-off requests in a date range, with the requesting users. Status: 0 pending, 1 canceled, 2 accepted, 3 expired, 4 denied. When I Work: GET /2/requests.
  • wheniwork_get_time_off_request Fetch one time-off request by id, with its message thread and users. When I Work: GET /2/requests/{request_id}.
  • wheniwork_list_time_off_types List the time-off types (e.g. Personal, Sick, Holiday) and whether each allows paid time. Their ids are the type_id for a new request. When I Work: GET /2/requesttypes.
  • wheniwork_list_shift_swaps List shift requests: swaps, drops and alerts, with the shifts and users involved. Status: 0 pending, 1 approved, 2 declined, 3 completed, 4 canceled, 5 expired. Type: 1 swap, 2 drop, 3 alert. start and end must be given together. When I Work: GET /2/swaps.
  • wheniwork_list_availability List availability events — when people said they can or cannot work, including recurring patterns that fall in the window. Defaults to the caller, from now to two weeks out. When I Work: GET /2/availabilityevents.

  • wheniwork_create_shift Create one shift on a schedule — assigned to a user, or open (user_id 0). Created as a draft unless published is true. Undo by editing it or unpublishing. When I Work: POST /2/shifts.
  • wheniwork_update_shift Change a shift — reassign it, move it, change position or notes.

This tool never sends a breaks array; When I Work documents that breaks omitted from an update's breaks list are re
  • wheniwork_publish_shifts Publish draft shifts so employees can see them. Publishing does not itself send notifications. Undo with wheniwork_unpublish_shifts. When I Work: POST /2/shifts/publish.

  • wheniwork_update_time_off_request Change a time-off request: set its status (0 pending, 1 canceled, 2 accepted/approved, 3 expired, 4 denied) and/or its dates or hours. Reversible — set the status back. start_time and end_time must be given together. When I Work: PUT /2/requests/{request_id}.
