Appointments
The Appointments API lets you book appointments for your contacts on your event types, then fetch, list, update, cancel, or delete them. It also answers the question that comes first in most booking flows — which times are actually free — and covers the calendar side: listing the Google Calendars you have connected and importing events that already live in them. When a Google Calendar connection is active, the matching calendar event is created and kept in sync automatically in the background. Restaurants using Zenchef or Formitable for their own reservations system can also be verified and connected here, so the AI Agent books real tables instead of internal appointments.
All paths on this page are relative to the base URL https://api.youraiconnector.com/v1. Every request needs your API key — see Authentication for the full list of ways to send it. The examples below use the X-API-Key header, with one cURL example showing the ?apiKey= query form too.
Events vs. appointments: An event type is a bookable slot definition (the kind of meeting, its length, its rooms). An appointment is one booked instance of an event type for a specific contact. You book an appointment by referencing the contact and the event type.
The appointment object
Every endpoint that returns an appointment uses the same shape:
| Field | Description |
|---|---|
id |
Unique ID of the appointment. |
contact_id |
ID of the contact the appointment is booked with. |
event_id |
ID of the event type the appointment was booked on. |
status |
Confirmed or Canceled. |
start_time |
Start of the appointment, ISO 8601 in UTC. |
end_time |
End of the appointment, ISO 8601 in UTC. |
created_at |
When the appointment was created. |
last_modified_at |
When the appointment was last changed. |
room_name |
Room or resource the appointment is booked in, when the event type uses rooms. |
description |
Free-form description of the appointment. |
summary |
Short summary or title. |
cancelation_reason |
Reason supplied when the appointment was canceled, if any. |
google_calendar_event_id |
ID of the linked Google Calendar event. Set once calendar sync completes; null when no calendar is connected or while the sync is still in progress. |
calendar_synced |
true once the appointment is linked to a calendar event. |
imported |
true when the appointment was imported from an external calendar rather than booked directly. |
is_recurring |
true when the appointment is part of a recurring series. |
recurrence_frequency |
How often the appointment repeats, when recurring. |
recurring_event_id |
ID of the recurring series this appointment belongs to. |
recurring_interval |
Interval between repetitions, when recurring. |
recurring_sequence |
Position of this appointment within its recurring series. |
end_after_x_occurrences |
Number of occurrences after which the recurring series ends. |
booking_provider |
Source system the booking came from, when booked through a connected reservation provider. |
About calendar sync: Right after you book or change an appointment,
google_calendar_event_idmay still benullandcalendar_syncedmay befalsebecause the sync runs in the background a moment later. Fetch the appointment again shortly afterward to see the populated calendar fields.
Find available slots
GET /appointments/available-slots
Returns the times that are genuinely free on one event type between two moments. This is normally the first call in a booking flow: show these slots, let the person pick one, then post the chosen time to Book an appointment.
The answer already takes into account the event type’s own opening hours and slot length, its rooms, appointments you have already booked on it, and everything blocked on the connected Google Calendars — so a slot that comes back here is one you can book.
| Query parameter | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|
event_id |
Yes | The event type to check. Must belong to your account. |
start_time |
Yes | Start of the window you want slots for, ISO 8601 date-time. |
end_time |
Yes | End of the window, ISO 8601 date-time. The whole end day is included. |
Results come back grouped by day — and, when the event type uses rooms, one group per room per day:
| Field | Description |
|---|---|
date |
The day the group covers, written DD/MM/YYYY. |
day |
Weekday name in lower case, for example monday. |
room_name |
The room or resource this group belongs to, when the event type uses rooms. |
available_slots |
The bookable blocks on that day, earliest first. |
Each entry in available_slots has:
| Field | Description |
|---|---|
start_time |
Block start as HH:mm. |
end_time |
Block end as HH:mm. |
available |
true — only free time is returned. |
spots_left |
How many bookings still fit in this block. Only present on event types that take more than one booking per slot. |
Times are local to the event type, not UTC.
date,start_time, andend_timeare wall-clock values in the event type’s own timezone (its override, or your account timezone when it has none). Book an appointment expects an ISO 8601 UTC instant, so convert the slot you picked before posting it.

A day with nothing free simply does not appear. Missing event_id, start_time, or end_time returns 400; an event type that is not on your account returns 404.
Book an appointment
POST /appointments
Books a new appointment for a contact on one of your event types. The end time is calculated automatically from the event type’s slot duration.
The booking is conflict-checked: if the requested slot overlaps an existing confirmed appointment on the same event type, the request fails with a 409 and nothing is created.
| Field | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|
contact_id |
Yes | ID of the contact to book for. Must belong to your account. |
event_id |
Yes | ID of the event type to book on. Must belong to your account. |
start_time |
Yes | Desired start as an ISO 8601 date-time. |
room_name |
No | Room or resource name, when the event type uses rooms. |

List appointments
GET /appointments
Lists appointments for your account, newest first, with cursor-based pagination.
| Query parameter | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|
contact_id |
No | Only return appointments for this contact. Contact-filtered listings include confirmed appointments only. |
date |
No | Only return appointments on this calendar day (YYYY-MM-DD). Requires contact_id. |
status |
No | Filter by Confirmed or Canceled. Only available without contact_id. |
limit |
No | Page size, an integer between 1 and 100. Default 50. |
cursor |
No | The next_cursor value from a previous response. |
A few rules to keep in mind:
- Without filters, you get every appointment on the account, page by page.
- By contact — set
contact_idto see one contact’s confirmed appointments. You can narrow this to a single day by also passingdate. - By status — set
status(withoutcontact_id) to list onlyConfirmedor onlyCanceledappointments across the account. - The
datefilter withoutcontact_id, orstatus=Canceledtogether withcontact_id, returns a400.

Update an appointment
PUT /appointments/{appointmentId}
Reschedule an appointment or change its details. Send only the fields you want to change — at least one is required. The combined start and end must stay in chronological order (end_time must be after start_time). Changes are synced to the linked calendar event automatically.
| Field | Description |
|---|---|
start_time |
New start, ISO 8601 date-time. |
end_time |
New end, ISO 8601 date-time. Must be after the start time. |

List your connected Google Calendars
GET /appointments/google-calendars
Returns the Google Calendars available on this account, straight from Google — useful for showing the account holder a picker of which calendar to import from below, or just to confirm the connection is live.
This only works once the account has connected Google Calendar (Settings → Integrations) with at least read access. If it hasn’t, or the granted access no longer includes the calendar-read scope, you get a 400 telling you to (re)connect it.

Each entry is Google’s own CalendarListEntry shape, so field names follow Google’s camelCase, not this API’s usual snake_case — that’s Google’s data passed through as-is, not ours. A missing or revoked connection returns 400 with an error explaining Google Calendar needs to be (re)connected.
Import events from a Google Calendar
POST /appointments/import-calendar-events
Pulls the events already sitting in a campaign’s or AI Agent’s connected Google Calendar(s) and turns them into appointments — useful the first time you connect a calendar that already has bookings on it. This can take a while (each event goes through extraction to figure out who it’s for), so it never runs inline: the request enqueues a background job and hands you back a job_id to poll.
| Field | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|
campaign_id |
One of these two | The campaign whose connected calendar(s) to import from. |
agent_id |
One of these two | The AI Agent whose connected calendar(s) to import from. |
identifier |
Yes | "EMAIL" or "PHONE_NUMBER" — which piece of contact info to extract from each calendar event to match or create the contact it belongs to. |
Send exactly one of campaign_id / agent_id, never both and never neither — either combination returns a 400. Whichever one you send must belong to your account, or you get a 404.

Restaurant booking integrations (Zenchef / Formitable)
Zenchef and Formitable are restaurant reservation systems your AI Agent can book real tables through. Each has a public, unauthenticated booking widget (https://api.youraiconnector.com/v1/zenchef-widget/... and https://api.youraiconnector.com/v1/formitable-widget/...) that renders inside chat for the diner — those widget routes are plain HTML pages meant to be opened in a browser, not JSON API endpoints, so they aren’t documented here. What follows are the account-management endpoints: verifying a restaurant ID belongs to the account holder, then adding, updating, or removing it.
Zenchef
Connecting a Zenchef restaurant is a two-step verification, so the account holder proves they actually run the restaurant before it gets wired into the bot: first check the ID exists (without revealing the name), then have them type the restaurant’s name themselves and verify it matches.
Step 1 — Check a restaurant ID exists
POST /appointments/zenchef-restaurants/check
| Field | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|
restaurant_id |
Yes | The Zenchef restaurant ID to check. |
curl -X POST "https://api.youraiconnector.com/v1/appointments/zenchef-restaurants/check?apiKey=YOUR_API_KEY" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{ "restaurant_id": "12345" }'
Response (200 OK):
{
"success": true,
"data": { "exists": true, "requiresNameVerification": true }
}
exists: false means no Zenchef restaurant has that ID — nothing else to do. Rate-limited to 10 checks per 5 minutes per account; going over returns 429.
Step 2 — Verify the restaurant’s name
POST /appointments/zenchef-restaurants/verify-name
| Field | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|
restaurant_id |
Yes | The Zenchef restaurant ID from step 1. |
user_input_name |
Yes | The name the account holder typed in — compared against the restaurant’s real name on Zenchef (case/whitespace-insensitive). |
curl -X POST "https://api.youraiconnector.com/v1/appointments/zenchef-restaurants/verify-name?apiKey=YOUR_API_KEY" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{ "restaurant_id": "12345", "user_input_name": "The Blue Door Bistro" }'
Response (200 OK):
{
"success": true,
"data": {
"verified": true,
"restaurantDetails": {
"id": "12345",
"name": "The Blue Door Bistro",
"address": "1 Rue de Rivoli, Paris",

Formitable
Formitable doesn’t need the two-step name proof Zenchef does — its restaurant IDs are already scoped per business, so one verification call is enough. It also has a details lookup used to cache the restaurant’s website URL during setup.

POST /appointments/formitable-restaurants/verify
| Field | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|
restaurant_id |
Yes | The Formitable restaurant ID. |
language |
No | Language tag for the probe request. Defaults to "nl". |
curl -X POST "https://api.youraiconnector.com/v1/appointments/formitable-restaurants/verify?apiKey=YOUR_API_KEY" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{ "restaurant_id": "the-blue-door", "language": "en" }'
Response (200 OK):
{
"success": true,
"data": {
"verified": true,
"restaurantDetails": {
"restaurantId": "the-blue-door",
"productCount": 4,
"sampleProductTitle": "Dinner for two",
"language": "en"
}
}
}
A restaurant_id Formitable doesn’t recognize returns 404. Rate-limited to 10 attempts per 5 minutes per account.

Error shape on all Zenchef/Formitable endpoints: unlike the rest of this page, errors here carry their status twice — once as the HTTP status and once as
error_codein the body — for example{ "success": false, "error": "Restaurant not found", "error_code": 404 }. Handle it the same way as any other error: checksuccess, readerrorfor the message.
Appointments API errors
Appointment endpoints return the standard error envelope:
{
"success": false,
"error": "Appointment not found"
}
| Status | When it happens on an appointment endpoint |
|---|---|
400 |
A required field is missing or invalid — for example a bad start_time, an end_time not after start_time, an invalid filter combination, no fields to update, or an already-canceled appointment. |
404 |
The appointment, contact, or event type was not found. |
409 |
The requested time slot is already taken (booking conflict). |
The shared codes every endpoint can return — 401, 403 (your plan does not include API access), 429 (rate limit) and 500 — are listed with retry guidance in Errors & Pagination.
