Create a rotation
<!-- theme: info -->Important note: Shift-based schedules use the V3 API and are not compatible with V2 automations. To create automations for Shift-Based Schedules, you need to:
- Update your automations to use the V3 API for all new shift-based schedules
- Keep the V2 endpoint for your existing schedules
An upgrade tool for existing schedules is coming soon; your legacy schedules will keep working in the meantime. Learn more.
Create a new empty rotation for a schedule. After creating a rotation, add events to define the on-call pattern.
Note: Rotations have no configuration of their own — all scheduling logic (recurrence, assignment strategy, members) is specified on events. The request body must be empty or {}.
