Hi, We are using external service to approve vacations\dayoffs\aways of our employees. It would be really great to have some API access for setting “show me as away” in asana, so we can do it automatically from external service data. Could you help with this ability for asana API, please? Thanks. …

Could someone from Asana support comment, please?

Access to that functionality is not currently available via the Asana API. @Ross_Grambo is any other info available?

Hello @Oleksii_Finkilshtein ! Sadly, no. We don’t expose this functionality yet and I don’t think it’s on the API team’s roadmap. :frowning: I’ll ensure there’s a task in their backlog for it.

Hi there. Any update on this? We are also interested in access to the “Show me away” function via API.

Sup guys. We are also seeking the “Show me away” function via API.

Hello. A very necessary functionality for us too.

It will be very useful to manage “away status” via API. Please add the method in next releases.

This functionality would be super helpful for our users.

We would also like to have this functionality

This would be extremely useful to have! It’s a shame our users have to manually go to so many different systems to set Out of Office.
