Workday Get PTO and Time Off Types / Plans with Balances and Eligible Absence Types

Retrieves a consolidated view of a worker’s Workday time off landscape, including PTO and other time off types defined in their assigned plans, current balance amounts (hours or days) tied to those plans, and the set of absence types the worker is eligible to request. The response includes the worker identifier and profile basics, plan-level balances with units and quantities, and eligible absence types (e.g., Vacation, Sick). Each eligible type provides an ID that is required to book or cancel PTO, and this ID also shows whether the type is tracked in days or hours. Eligible types are enriched with details such as default daily quantity, whether start and end times are required, and whether the type is position-based. This enables you to answer “what kinds of time off are available and how much can be used” in one step, supporting validation, guidance, and downstream request creation.
