Currently I am able to update schedules by following the guide at https://apps.usw2.pure.cloud/directory/#/admin/wfm/schedules/52c855d8-acc8-4310-9efd-16be6e74e4b8/update/2025-06-23966a1fb4-b84c-44c1-b00a-119dcc1f114f

However I am unable to find any information on how to remove activities, shifts, and full day time off markers through this process. Has anyone worked with this before that might be able to point me in the right direction?

Same way you updated. Think of it more as a replace. What you specified in the update for say an addition can be used by specifying a set of information with omissions. So, you have a schedule in hand, make it 'look' like you want locally, then update with that data.

Thank you very much for the quick response. Unfortunately this was one of the first things that I had tried and it seems that each update adds to what is currently there. I tested with three uploads of single activity uploads incrementing them by an hour each time and I ended up having them added one by one until I had all three back to back. I have also tried passing an empty array for the fullTimeOffDayMarker but it doesn't seem to have any effect even though the notification channel says the update goes through as COMPLETE.

The schema for updating a schedule can be found documented on the response to the route to fetch the uploadUrl. You'll find the documentation under the 201 response on that resource, the field name is uploadBodySchema

To delete a shift, you must supply the ID of the object as well as setting the delete flag to true. To delete a time off marker, the procedure is the same but you provide the businessUnitDate in place of the ID.

To delete an activity from the shift, you replace the activities on the shift. Whatever activities you pass on the shift will replace what was there before.

Example json for removing a shift:

{  "id": "the-shift-id",  "delete": true}

Example json for removing a full day time off request marker:

{  "businessUnitDate": "<the date of the marker to be deleted>",  "delete": true}

Note that updating either of the above is the same, you just populate the data you wish to change (and don't pass the delete flag).

To remove an activity from a shift, just replace the activities on the shift - they are considered properties of the shift rather than individual entities that can be manipulated individually with a delete flag.

Of course, the example json above must be nested in the correct level of the schema as documented at the above link.

Thank you both so much, this is exactly what I needed. I'm also glad to see where I can see the expected structure of the upload JSON beyond just the minimal example given in the guide.
