Is there a way to tell if a user is on vacation/holiday via the XML Api?

I have a process that automatically assigns tasks to users but I don't want to assign something to them if they are out that day. We can enter our vacation time in but I can't see a way to read it out.

The feature should include the ability to add holiday/vacation dates for a user. This is useful for the scenario where you want to sync your leave application system to the FogBugz working schedule. – Rohland Oct 25 2011 at 10:25

This functionality is not currently exposed via our XML API. We have a case open to discuss adding this functionality in the future.

This is an old post, but I ran into the same thing. I really need to just be able to read when people will be out on a holiday. Could at least this be done now through the API and it is just not documented? Thank you! – Totem Aug 8 at 22:11

Wow, I'm seeing requests in google for this since 2008... seems odd that this does not exist as a node entry in the [listWorkingSchedule] call, as that could be a good place for it.

If this is NOT immediately available via the API, are there other methods available to retrieve this information? iCal, etc...? or at least some kind of read-only view?

NM, I see that you delete events as they pass... unfortunate as that would be useful for utilization tracking etc... – Jason Johnson Aug 15 at 21:37
