Dear Personio Team,

We have started working with the Personio API V2 and are currently looking into retrieving absences within a specific time window.

Our challenge: we can only query for absence start or end dates, but not check whether a person is absent during a given period.

Example:

Vacation: 01.08.2025–31.08.2025

Query: starts_from.date_time.gte: 2025-08-14T00:00:00Z

Result: No match, even though the person is absent on that date.

Our goal is to provide a time range (e.g., three weeks) and reliably determine if a person is present or absent within that window.

Is there a recommended way to achieve this with the API?
