Get Employee Detail from api

[harpreet]

Hello,

I am able to get a employee id from schedule->staff->ID.
But when I hit a employee detail using API endpoint . For some users, it is giving me 404 error. I am confused to have this behaviour.
Please let me know what is wrong with my request or employee id.

For example I have get employee id 2033 and company Id = 3 from schedule->staff->ID.
But when i hit using this API 'https://durkin.simprosuite.com/api/v1.0 ... oyees/2033'.
I got 404 error.

Thanks

Hi harpreet,

Thank you for your message, according the system staff id 2033 is a "plant" not an "employee", so the correct flow to retrieve the staff information (programmatically) is:

1. get a staff id from schedule > staff > ID (e.g. ID 2033)
2. retrieve staff information:

Code: Select all

https://durkin.simprosuite.com/api/v1.0/companies/3/staff/2033

// return result
{
    "ID": 2033,
    "Name": "<masked>",
    "Type": "plant",
    "TypeId": 1793,
    "_href": "/api/v1.0/companies/3/plantTypes/3/plants/1793"
}

3. use "_href" link to access the staff information:

Code: Select all

https://durkin.simprosuite.com/api/v1.0/companies/3/plantTypes/3/plants/1793

cheers,

Rick

Hello,

I have a question?

If changing in schedule, the modified date of the job also change or not?
and
Is there a way to get only modified schedule of the job?

Hi harpeet,

Yes, the jobs/quotes modified date will be changed if you change their schedule.

There is no way to track only the modified schedules of a job at the moment, but once we got our webhook feature released, you should be able to subscribe to receive any schedule change events (create / delete / update etc.).

cheers,

Rick
