Scheduling a Job via API

Hi All, Unsure if anyone knows but is there a way to schedule a job for a specific time using the API? I have had a look and am unsure if we should be using Job Allocations (assume this allocates a staff member to the job) or if there is another method for scheduling a job for x duration starting from y date.

Blocking out calender times

Hi, Is there a way to block out my ServiceM8 calender into specific allotments of time that have a title that I can then book relevant jobs over the top of? I know i can import my external calender from google etc, but these items only come up as busy in ServiceM8 and isnt useful if i want other people to book things in for me in the correct time slot. For example every monday morning i have appointment between 7-10. My assistant can see this in the service m8 calender and schedule my appointments in this time slot. Other staff members can see that monday morning between 7-10 i am out on appointments even if they have not been scheduled in yet.

Producing the job list CSV via api

Hi, Is it possible to use the api interface to produce the job list CSV file that is available within ServiceM8 reporting tab? I would like to automate the collection of this data as the CSV has exactly what I need, and chaining the api lists together seems redundant
