We present a formalism based on nonequilibrium dynamical mean-field theory (DMFT) which allows to compute the time-resolved x-ray absorption spectrum (XAS) of photoexcited solids. By applying this formalism to the photodoped half-filled and quarter-filled two-orbital Hubbard models in the Mott insulating regime we clarify how the time-resolved XAS signal reflects the nonequilibrium population of different local states. Apart from the missing broadening associated with continuum excitations, the atomic XAS spectrum computed with the nonthermal state populations provides a good approximation to the full nonequilibrium DMFT result. This suggests a route to combine the accurate DMFT description of nonequilibrium states of solids with cluster calculations of the XAS signal.
