Use the AvailableTimeRanges class to generate a list of time ranges for when a specific dimension scope is available. This method does not only inspect Availability records, but also existing Reservations that might block a dimension from being booked. It is useful for answering questions like: ‘When can this room be booked?’ or ‘Given these Staff members, who is available when?’. When used for Resources, you can include Services that must be available for the booking.

Methods

Description

This method takes a dimension scope, a date range, and a prototype Reservation. It will return a list of available time ranges mapped by date and dimension.

Signature

global static B25.AvailableTimeRanges.Result getTimeRanges(B25.AvailableTimeRanges.Context context)

Parameters

B25.AvailableTimeRanges.Context

An instance of B25.AvailableTimeRanges.Context. This class wraps the input parameters, such as the dimension scope, a date range, and a prototype Reservation.

Return Type

B25.AvailableTimeRanges.Result

An instance of B25.AvailableTimeRanges.Result. This contains a list of available time ranges mapped by date and dimension.

Inner Classes

Description

This class wraps the input parameters, such as the dimension scope, a date range, and a prototype Reservation.

Properties

The start of the date range that you are interested in. The result will not include available time ranges before this date. For performance reasons, try to keep the date range narrow.

The end of the date range that you are interested in. This date is exclusive. The result will not include available time ranges on or after this date. For performance reasons, try to keep the date range narrow.

The name of the Dimension that you are interested in. A Dimension is an SObject that Reservations are related to. For example ‘B25__Resource__c’ or ‘B25__Staff__c’.

The name of the DimensionField that you are interested in. A DimensionField is a lookup from Reservation to a Dimension. For example ‘B25__Resource__c’ or ‘B25__Staff__c’.

The collection of dimension record ids that you are interested in. For performance reasons, try to keep the size of this collection small.

(Optional) If you have conflict checking configuration that depends on certain Reservation fields, you can include the prototypeReservation property with the required fields populated. An example could be that your configuration depends on B25__Quantity__c or B25__Status__r.B25__AllowDoubleBooking__c.

(Optional) If you include this property, the results will only include Resources where these Services are available with enough capacity. This property is only valid if your Dimension and Dimension Field are both set to ‘B25__Resource__c’.

Description

This class wraps the result, which contains a list of available time ranges mapped by date and dimension.

Properties

A list of time ranges, mapped by date, mapped by dimension id. The outer map will contain a key corresponding to each dimension id that was passed to the method in the dimensionIds property. The inner maps will contain a date key for each date in the date range (which were passed to the method in the startDate and endDate properties). The lists inside the inner maps will contain all the time ranges that the dimension is available on that date. If this list is empty, it means that the dimension is not available on that date.

Description

This class represents an available time range.

Properties

The time at which the dimension starts being available.

The time at which the dimension stops being available.

If startTime and endTime are both 0:00, this means that the dimension is available for the entire day.

GoMeddo Rest API

In the GoMeddo Rest API, a similar function called Availability exists. It retrieves the opening times and reservations for a list of dimension Ids, enabling you to determine the still available locations and timeslots.
