Read open and overdue Task activity

When to use this endpoint

Compare open Tasks with the overdue subset within one creation-date reporting cohort. Select the matching saved Reports dashboard chart or table, choose a bounded range, and use the returned series to render that report.

res[0] counts open Tasks and res[1] counts overdue open Tasks; there is no value series.

Authentication and permissions

Authenticate with signed API-key fields or a logged-in CRM session. The handler requires login and account reporting feature bit 8192. No separate Reports, Jobs, Tasks or finance page-permission check is added by the handler.

The dispatcher rejects this legacy Report route for configured TeamAccess record scope, including assigned-only/parent-manager access and applicable department hierarchy scope. It returns an explicit scope error rather than a silently filtered chart.

Allowed requests read the authenticated tenant. Entity selections are report filters or label controls, not authorization; the handler does not add customer account-manager ownership filtering.

Parameters

Parameter	Type	Required	Description
`daysFrom`	Integer string	Yes	Inclusive first date: relative day offset from current PHP time by default, or Unix seconds with durationType=1. Must be an integer; malformed/blank values are rejected. ISO strings are not parsed as dates.
`daysTo`	Integer string	Yes	Inclusive last date, in the same mode as daysFrom. Expanded to 23:59:59 in the account timezone; no reversed-range validation.
`durationType`	Integer string	No	Default 0. Exactly 1 uses Unix seconds; other values convert integer day offsets through strtotime. Use 0/1; numeric values are validated before report SQL.
`frequency`	Integer string	No	Default 0 monthly, 1 weekly, 2 quarterly, 3 yearly. Controls helper axis and grouping, using ISO week-year for weekly periods. Unsupported values are rejected.
`userType`	Integer string	Yes	0 summary, 1 users, 2 customers, 3 asset-axis labels. User grouping is Task created_by, not assigned_to. Type 3 uses the same customer-key grouping as type 2 rather than an actual asset relationship.
`user`	Native array of ID strings or ["All"]	No	Defaults to ["All"]; a supplied empty list is rejected. Summary ignores the selection; individual axes include selected IDs by name. Pass a native array, not an encoded JSON string.

Example request

$report = FM_api('Report_getTasksDue', [
	'daysFrom'=>'1768003200',
	'daysTo'=>'1768003200',
	'durationType'=>'1',
	'userType'=>'0',
	'frequency'=>'0',
	'user'=>['All'],
]);

Example response

{
  "res": [
    [
      0
    ],
    [
      0
    ]
  ],
  "xLabels": [
    "Jan 2026"
  ],
  "xLabels1": []
}

Representative empty-cohort result from the real handler with a January 2026 summary axis. The request timestamp is 2026-01-10 00:00:00 UTC and expands to account-local day boundaries.

res[0] counts open Tasks and res[1] counts overdue open Tasks; there is no value series.

Errors and unusual responses

Response	Condition
`{"error":"not logged in"}`	No authenticated tenant context is available. Invalid signed credentials can be rejected by the dispatcher before the handler runs.
`{"error":"This legacy report does not support your configured record scope. Use the scoped Contracts reports or table exports."}`	The dispatcher detects configured TeamAccess record scope before the handler.
`{"error":"no permission to access api"}`	Account reporting feature bit 8192 is absent.
`{"error":"missing parameter: daysFrom"}`	The named parameter is omitted or null. Present blank/malformed controls return an invalid-parameter error instead; list controls must be native arrays.
`{"error":"missing parameter: daysTo"}`	The named parameter is omitted or null. Present blank/malformed controls return an invalid-parameter error instead; list controls must be native arrays.
`{"error":"missing parameter: userType"}`	The named parameter is omitted or null. Present blank/malformed controls return an invalid-parameter error instead; list controls must be native arrays.
`{"error":"invalid parameter: daysFrom"}`	A supplied numeric/list control is malformed, a list contains unsupported tokens, or frequency/userType/date selectors are outside 0–3. The message names the invalid control; validation precedes chart queries.

Legacy application errors may be returned with HTTP 200. Check the decoded response for error, not only the HTTP status.

Behaviour and edge cases

Filters cdate inclusively and selects status 0 or 1. Overdue additionally means due_date < the real current account-local date at midnight; due today is excluded.
The range selects Task creation date, not due date. Changing daysTo does not change the real-current-day overdue cutoff.
User grouping is created_by, not assigned_to. No per-Task privacy, assignee, active/deleted or page-permission filter is added by the handler.
For userType 2 or 3, grouping uses client_id, the Task customer field defined by the Task map. Customer-axis labels match that ID; type 3 retains the legacy asset-label axis without adding an asset relationship.
displayType, legend and status are ignored; open statuses are fixed in SQL. Counts are integer chart values.
There is no pagination, checkpoint or result-size limit. Keep the date range and entity selection bounded. Aggregated values are numeric chart cells, not database scalar strings or object rows.
The helper orders periods first, then entities by name; one entity collapses xLabels to period text with empty xLabels1. Temporary users with non-null meta.is_tmp are excluded from user-axis lookups, but inactive/deleted label entities are not generally excluded. Unmatched entity/date keys are silently dropped.
PHP date conversion uses the account timezone (missing/null defaults to Europe/Dublin, blank means UTC). SQL date/Unix conversion uses its database session timezone; these handlers do not force cross-layer alignment.
Weekly axes enumerate real Mondays and use ISO week-year keys consistently with SQL. Week 53 and ranges crossing a calendar-year boundary are included; display labels are Week NN YYYY using the ISO year.
Numeric controls and native selector lists are validated through Report_validateChartRequest before SQL. JSON-encoded list strings, nested/object-keyed arrays, unsafe ID values and undocumented tokens are rejected. The existing login, reporting-feature and TeamAccess entry policies remain unchanged.
No direct caller for this endpoint was found in the mobile app or its m-service intermediary.

Side effects

Reads tenant data only; no business-record, audit, notification or schema writes occur. The chart restores its temporary PHP timezone on normal return paths.
