+* Only updates assignedEmployees array

+### \[ACTION: assign shifts automatically\]
+* Requires shift plan, employees, and availabilities
+* Availability preferenceLevel must be 1, 2, or 3
+* Constraints must be an array (converts non-array to empty array)
+* All employees must have valid availability data

+* Automatically fixes data structure inconsistencies:
+  - timeSlotId mapping (handles both naming conventions)
+  - requiredEmployees fallback to 2 if missing

+* planId: required valid UUID

+## Role & Permission Notes
+* The frontend services don't explicitly restrict actions by role
+* Role-based restrictions are likely handled by the backend
+* Frontend assumes user has permissions for requested operations
