Overview

The node interacts with the Everest Transport Management System (TMS) to retrieve available time slots for a specified service. It is useful in scenarios where scheduling or booking of services is required, such as logistics planning or appointment setting. For example, a user can select a service and optionally specify an establishment, a start time, and a maximum number of days to search for available slots.

Use Case Examples

  1. Retrieve available slots for a specific service to schedule a transport mission.
  2. Check available time slots at a particular establishment for a given service starting from a specific date and time.
