Turn a Forecast into a Staffing Requirement

with Assembled · Contact Centre Operations Management

Read a forecast, resolve a requirement type, and create a staffing requirement.

  1. List the volume forecast for the queue across the window to ground the staffing requirement in predicted demand.
  2. List requirement types to resolve the family of need applied to the new requirement.
  3. Create a staffing requirement for the queue and window expressing how many agents are needed across the interval.
What you'll need to have ready
  • apiKey: Assembled API key (sk_live_...) used as the HTTP Basic Auth username.
  • queueId: Queue ID the forecast and requirement apply to.
  • startTime: Window start (ISO 8601 date-time).
  • endTime: Window end (ISO 8601 date-time).
  • requirementTypeId: Requirement type ID; if omitted the first available type is used.
  • requiredCount: Number of agents required across the interval.
