Hello, I’m trying to set up booking via API.

Here is a sample request:  
{  
“startsAt”: “2021-07-28T08:00:00”,  
“timeZone”: “US/Central”,  
“units”: 1,  
“numberOfSlots”: 1,  
“answers”: [  
{  
“code”: “EMAIL”,  
“string”: “[ben1+apitest@testemail.com](mailto:ben1+apitest@testemail.com)”  
},  
{  
“code”: “FNAME”,  
“string”: “Ben1”  
},  
{  
“code”: “LNAME”,  
“string”: “Test1”  
},  
{  
“code”: “PHONE”,  
“string”: “9544501276”  
},  
{  
“code”: “ZIP”,  
“string”: “33309”  
}  
]  
}

Now I want this booking to be assigned to a particular user from the team. How do I go about that? I have user’s email.

@Benson welcome to the Forum.

You will need to also pass in:  
​"teamMember":{  
“id”: “{TEAMMEMBERID}”}  
​  
​Replace {TEAMMEMBERID} with the ID number for the team member you want to book with.  
​  
​You can run a GET for the current booking page and it will list the ?fields=teamMembers,teamMembers.items,teamMembers.items.name,teamMembers.items.id

I’m trying for the last one hour to get team member ID.

can you please post the sample request on how to get teammeberID?  
I did not understand how to run GET for the current booking page.

this is what I did and failed:  
POST : [https://api.youcanbook.me/v1/{MyAccountID}/profiles/{MyProfileId}/bookings](https://api.youcanbook.me/v1/%7BMyAccountID%7D/profiles/%7BMyProfileId%7D/bookings)

{  
“startsAt”: “2021-07-30T08:00:00”,

“answers”: [  
{  
“code”: “EMAIL”,  
“string”: “[ben1+apitest@testemail.com](mailto:ben1+apitest@testemail.com)”

Ok, I got it.  
I did GET a request on  
[https://api.youcanbook.me/v1/{AccountId}/profiles/{ProfileId}/?fields=teamMembers,teamMembers.items,teamMembers.items.name,teamMembers.items.id](https://api.youcanbook.me/v1/%7BAccountId%7D/profiles/%7BProfileId%7D/?fields=teamMembers,teamMembers.items,teamMembers.items.name,teamMembers.items.id)

and I did get a successful response. and after using that Id I was able to create a booking successfully.

Thank you so much for the help.
