# Create a schedule

`POST /v1/schedules`

Creates a working-hours schedule owned by exactly one of `member_id` / `service_id` / `resource_id` (not exactly one → 422 `SCHEDULE_OWNER_INVALID`). Members create their own; owner/admin create anyone's (member schedules) and all service/resource schedules. `availability` defaults to Mon-Fri 09:00-17:00 when omitted; the first schedule for a member auto-defaults. A service/resource can hold at most one schedule (409 `SCHEDULE_ALREADY_EXISTS`). Machine members can never own schedules (422 `MEMBER_MUST_BE_HUMAN`). Per-user rate-limited at 60/60s.

## Headers

| Parameter | Type | Required | Description |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `X-Wiblo-Workspace` | `string` | Yes | Workspace id the call is scoped to. The actor must hold an active membership in it; a foreign or unknown id collapses onto 404 WORKSPACE_NOT_FOUND. |

## Request body

| Field | Type | Required | Description |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `member_id` | `string` | No | Workspace member who owns the schedule. Exactly one of `member_id` / `service_id` / `resource_id` must be set. |
| `service_id` | `string` | No | Service that owns the schedule (a service holds at most one). Exactly one of `member_id` / `service_id` / `resource_id` must be set. |
| `resource_id` | `string` | No | Resource that owns the schedule (a resource holds at most one). Exactly one of `member_id` / `service_id` / `resource_id` must be set. |
| `name` | `string` | Yes | Display name of the schedule (1–100 characters). |
| `timezone` | `string` | No | IANA time zone the schedule's times are interpreted in, e.g. `Europe/London`. Defaults to `UTC` when omitted. |
| `availability` | `array<AvailabilityBlock>` | No | Weekly availability blocks (must not overlap on a day). Defaults to Mon–Fri `09:00`–`17:00` when omitted. |
| `is_default` | `boolean` | No | Make this the member's default schedule (member-owned schedules only). When omitted, a member's first schedule auto-defaults. |

### The AvailabilityBlock object

| Field | Type | Required | Description |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `days` | `array<integer>` | Yes | Days of week the window applies to — unique integers `0`–`6`, `0` = Sunday. |
| `start_time` | `string` | Yes | Window start in 24h `HH:mm`. |
| `end_time` | `string` | Yes | Window end in 24h `HH:mm`; must be after `start_time`. |
