### Overview

Retrieves the on-call responders for the specified schedule, grouped by position (previous, current, next), at a given time. Supports schedules with multiple concurrent on-call responders at a position, by returning a list of shifts per position. This endpoint requires the `on_call_read` permission.

| include          | string | Comma-separated list of included relationships to be returned. Allowed values: `schedule`, `responders`, `responders.shifts`, `responders.shifts.user`.                                                                                                                                            |
| filter[position] | string | Comma-separated list of positions to retrieve. Allowed values: `previous`, `current`, `next`.

| filter[at_ts]    | string | Retrieves the on-call responders at the given timestamp in RFC3339 format (for example, `2025-05-07T02:53:01Z` or `2025-05-07T02:53:01+00:00`). When using timezone offsets with `+` or `-`, ensure proper URL encoding (`+` should be encoded as `%2B`). Defaults to the current time if omitted. |
