Create a schedule

Creates a schedule for the calling PBX. Requires the schedules scope on an Integrations API key (a user bearer token also passes).

The schedule is the container only: the time rules themselves (days of the week, fixed dates, recurring dates, specific periods) are ScheduleStep records and are still managed in the cockpit, so a schedule created here starts out with no steps and matches nothing until steps are added.

pbx_id is forced from the authenticated principal (a user's PBX, or the Pbx-owned API key itself) and is never read from the request body: sending another tenant's id has no effect. Schedule names are not required to be unique within a PBX.

The response is the created schedule, unwrapped (no data envelope), and is identical to what a subsequent GET of the same id returns.

HTTP: bearerAuth

User bearer token. Default authentication for customer-facing endpoints. Obtain a token by calling POST /login with your credentials, then send it on every subsequent request as Authorization: Bearer <token>. The token inherits the permissions and PBX scope of the authenticated user.

HTTP Authorization Scheme
bearer
Bearer format
Bearer <token>
HTTP: IntegrationApiKey

API key created on the Cockpit Integrations page (an "API key" integration). It is a bearer token owned by the customer's PBX and limited to the scopes selected when the key was created (e.g. phone-numbers, push-configuration).

Send it in the Authorization header:

Authorization: Bearer <api_key>

Manage keys (create / reveal / revoke) from Integrations → New integration → API key.

Unauthenticated. The `Authorization: Bearer <token>` header was missing, malformed, or names a token that has been revoked or deleted.
Response schema
messagestring
Forbidden. The bearer token authenticated successfully but does not carry the scope this endpoint requires. Re-create the Integrations API key with the missing scope selected (Integrations > New integration > API key).
Response schema
messagestring
Unprocessable Entity. The request body failed validation. `errors` maps each rejected field to its messages, and `message` repeats the first one. Nothing was written.
Response schema

The first validation message, repeated for convenience.
