## Set the default schedule

`PUT /v1/work-schedules/:id/default`

Sets or clears the default work schedule for new machines in the Bitrix24 account. Machines that already exist keep their mode.

There are two marks, set independently: `machines` for new servers and galaxy applications, `agents` for new agents and bots. An agent on a schedule sleeps outside its windows and answers no messages until the next window opens, so agents have a mark of their own. Each mark can be set on at most one schedule: setting it on a new schedule removes it from the previous one.

Only an administrator of the Bitrix24 account can set or remove the mark — it changes the mode of every employee's new machines, and their bill with it. The administrator check applies to the owner of a personal key, so a call with an OAuth application key is refused with `403 ADMIN_ONLY` even with an administrator's session. The examples below use a personal key only.

## Parameters

| Parameter | In | Type | Required | Description |
|----------|---|-----|:-----:|----------|
| `id` | path | string | yes | Schedule ID — a preset or a custom one. Source — `data[].id` from the [schedule list](./list.md) |

## Request fields (body)

| Field | Type | Required | Description |
|------|-----|:-----:|----------|
| `audience` | string | yes | Which mark: `machines` — new servers and galaxy applications, `agents` — new agents and bots |
| `enabled` | boolean | yes | `true` sets the mark on this schedule, `false` removes it from this schedule |

## Examples

### curl — personal key

```bash
curl -X PUT https://vibecode.bitrix24.com/v1/work-schedules/WORK_SCHEDULE_ID/default \
  -H "X-Api-Key: YOUR_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{ "audience": "machines", "enabled": true }'
```

### JavaScript — personal key

```javascript
const res = await fetch(
  `https://vibecode.bitrix24.com/v1/work-schedules/${workScheduleId}/default`,
  {
    method: 'PUT',
    headers: {
      'X-Api-Key': 'YOUR_API_KEY',
      'Content-Type': 'application/json',
    },
    body: JSON.stringify({ audience: 'machines', enabled: true }),
  }
)
const { data } = await res.json()
const marked = data.find(s => s.defaultForNewMachines)
console.log(`New machines use this schedule: ${marked ? marked.name : 'no schedule marked'}`)
```

## Response fields

| Field | Type | Description |
|------|-----|----------|
| `success` | boolean | Always `true` on success |
| `data` | array | The whole schedule library of the Bitrix24 account after the change: the mark may have moved from one schedule to another. Each item has the same shape as in the [schedule list](./list.md) |
| `data[].defaultForNewMachines` | boolean | New servers and galaxy applications use this schedule when created. At most one schedule has `true` |
| `data[].defaultForNewAgents` | boolean | New agents and bots use this schedule when created. At most one schedule has `true` |

## Response example

The mark for machines is set on the "Warehouse shifts" schedule and appears on it alone in the response:

```json

  "success": true,
  "data": [
    {
      "id": "cmfp4qz7x00031ocg5d1a8k2m",
      "kind": "PRESET",
      "name": "Weekdays 9–18",
      "presetKey": "weekdays-9-18",
      "timezone": "Europe/Berlin",

        { "isoDay": 2, "start": "09:00", "end": "13:00" },
        { "isoDay": 2, "start": "14:00", "end": "24:00" }

    }
  ]
}
```

## Error response example

403 — the key owner is not an administrator of the Bitrix24 account:

```json
{
  "success": false,
  "error": {
    "code": "ADMIN_ONLY",
    "message": "Only a Bitrix24 account administrator can choose the schedule new machines are born with"
  }
}
```

## Errors

| HTTP | Code | Description |
|------|-----|----------|
| 400 | `VALIDATION_ERROR` | The body does not match the schema: `audience` or `enabled` is missing, `audience` is neither `machines` nor `agents`, `enabled` is neither `true` nor `false`, or the body carries an extra field. `message` carries the field path and the reason |
| 400 | `WORK_SCHEDULE_EMPTY` | The schedule has no windows: a machine on it would never run. Removing the mark from such a schedule is allowed |
| 400 | `RUN_MODE_UNAVAILABLE` | Run modes are not enabled for the Bitrix24 account yet |
| 401 | `MISSING_API_KEY` | The `X-Api-Key` header is missing |
| 401 | `INVALID_API_KEY` | The key is not recognized: no such key exists on the platform |
| 403 | `ADMIN_ONLY` | The key owner is not an administrator of the Bitrix24 account, or the call was made with an OAuth application key |
| 403 | `WRITE_BLOCKED_READONLY_KEY` | The key is in read-only mode — it cannot set or remove the mark |
| 403 | `INFRA_SCOPE_REQUIRED` | The key lacks the `vibe:infra` scope |
| 403 | `INFRA_FORBIDDEN_FOR_COWORK_KEY` | The call was made with a Cowork key — the schedule library is unavailable to this key. For instructions, see [Project key for deploy](/docs/cowork/deploy-key) |
| 404 | `NOT_FOUND` | No schedule with this `id` exists in the key's Bitrix24 account, or the key is not bound to a Bitrix24 account. A schedule of another account gets the same answer — the response does not confirm that it exists |
| 429 | `RATE_LIMITED` | The limit of 30 requests per minute per key is exceeded. The current limit is returned in the `x-ratelimit-limit` header |

## Known specifics

- **An explicit mode at creation takes precedence over the mark.** A server created with a `runMode` block uses the specified mode, including an explicitly specified `IDLE` mode. The mark applies only when the create request names no mode — [Create a server](/docs/infra/servers/create).
- **The mark never blocks creation.** If the marked schedule cannot be applied, the machine is created in the mode it would have used without the mark, and creation is not rejected. The mode the machine got is in the `runMode` and `workSchedule` fields of [`GET /v1/infra/servers/:id`](/docs/infra/servers/get).
- **Which machines use the default schedule when created.** The `machines` mark goes to a server created in the Vibecode dashboard or through `POST /v1/infra/servers`, and to a galaxy application. The `agents` mark goes to a machine the platform creates for an agent or a managed bot. A galaxy host gets no mark: it has no mode of its own and runs while any of its applications runs.
- **Repeating the call changes nothing.** A mark the schedule already carries can be set again — the answer is the same `200`. Removing the mark from a schedule that does not carry it also answers `200` and leaves the mark on another schedule untouched.
- **One schedule can carry both marks.** The `machines` and `agents` marks are independent: they can sit on one schedule or on different ones.
- **Deleting a schedule removes its marks.** After a marked schedule is [deleted](./delete.md), new machines are created as they would be without the mark.
