Other MCP clients (Windsurf, Cline, Zed and more): add the URL as a remote MCP server (Streamable HTTP). The client then opens the login page in your browser. Do not add an Authorization header: see Before you connect.

Before you connect

The login page asks for your Account ID and API key.

Find both in YouCanBook.me → My Account → Security (API section; a Team-plan feature). They are used only to call the API on your behalf; the Account ID identifies your tenant and the API key is never shown to anyone.

Add only the URL. Do not add an Authorization header or an API key to the client config. The server signs you in with OAuth: the login page asks for your Account ID and API key. If the config has such a header, remove it: some clients then send that header instead of the login token, and every call fails with 401.

Example prompts

Turn on the YouCanBook.me connector, then ask in plain words. The AI picks the tools.

ToolTypeWhat it does
list_bookingsread
List bookings
List bookings (appointments) on the YouCanBookMe account. YCBM API: GET /v1/bookings.

get_profileread
Get a profile (booking page)
Fetch a single profile (booking page) by id. YCBM API: GET /v1/profiles/{profileId}. Use `fields` to select fields, including nested sub-resources (appointmentTypes, teamMembers, locations). Returns the profile object.
list_team_membersread
List a profile's team members
List the team members configured on a profile (booking page). YCBM API: GET /v1/profiles/{profileId} with a teamMembers field selection. Returns the profile's teamMembers block (each member has id, name, email, description, pic, calendarId).
list_appointment_typesread

youcanbookme_requestread
Raw read request
Power-user escape hatch: GET any YCBM API path not wrapped by a dedicated tool. READ-ONLY — only GET is allowed. Pass the FULL API path after the origin, starting with a slash, INCLUDING any query string, e.g. "/v1/bookings?maxResults=5" or "/v1/profiles". Returns the parsed JSON.
create_bookingwrite
Create a booking
MUTATES YouCanBookMe data: creates a booking (appointment) on a profile. YCBM API: POST /v1/bookings (JSON). Required: profileId, startsAt, endsAt (ISO 8601 times). Optional: title, timeZone, locale, units. Complex fields like `answers` (form-field answers) and `linkFields` should be passed via the `fields` passthrough. Returns the created booking.
update_bookingwrite
Update a booking
MUTATES YouCanBookMe data: updates an existing booking (reschedule, rename, mark cancelled/no-show). YCBM API: PATCH /v1/bookings/{bookingId} (JSON, partial update).

cancel_bookingwrite
Cancel a booking
MUTATES YouCanBookMe data: cancels a booking. Convenience wrapper for PATCH /v1/bookings/{bookingId} with { cancelled: true } — safer and reversible (re-activate via update_booking cancelled=false) versus deleting. Returns the updated booking.
update_profilewrite
Update a profile (booking page)
MUTATES YouCanBookMe data: updates a profile's (booking page) configuration. YCBM API: PATCH /v1/profiles/{profileId} (JSON, partial update).

create_locationwrite
Add a location
MUTATES YouCanBookMe data: adds a location to a profile. YCBM API: POST /v1/profiles/{profileId}/locations (JSON). Required: kind (location type) and strategy (how it is assigned).

Report the caller's current free-tier usage this month: calls used, monthly limit, remaining, and whether the cap is reached. Read-only; does not count against the meter.
youcanbookme_request_featuremeta
Request a missing feature
Tell usefulapi that the user needs something the YouCanBook.me tools cannot do yet (a missing tool, field or filter). Call it only when the user asks for something none of the tools can do, and tell the user that you send the request. Do not call it for errors or for normal requests. Do not include personal data, credentials or customer records. Stored with the product name and the client type (for example Claude or Cursor), without the user's account. At most 5 requests per day. Does not count against the meter.
youcanbookme_upgrademeta
Upgrade to Pro (unlimited)
Subscribe to the Pro plan for UNLIMITED YouCanBook.me tool calls (the free tier caps monthly usage). Choose monthly ($9/month) or yearly ($90/year — 2 months free) billing. Returns a Stripe Checkout link to open in your browser; after payment your account upgrades automatically. Does not count against the meter.
youcanbookme_cancel_subscriptionmeta
Cancel the Pro subscription
Cancel the caller's YouCanBook.me Pro subscription at the end of the paid period (no refund for the current period; unlimited calls continue until then, then the free tier applies). Requires confirm: true. Run youcanbookme_upgrade later to undo the cancel before the period ends. Does not count against the meter.

FAQ

Is this an official YouCanBook.me product?

No. usefulapi is an independent service. It is not affiliated with or endorsed by YouCanBook.me. The server calls the YouCanBook.me API with your own YouCanBook.me access, so it sees only the data that your account can see.

What do I need to connect?

The login page asks for your Account ID and API key. See Before you connect for where to find them.

Do I put my YouCanBook.me key or an Authorization header in the client config?

No. Add only the URL. Do not add an Authorization header or an API key to the client config. The server signs you in with OAuth: the login page asks for your Account ID and API key. If the config has such a header, remove it: some clients then send that header instead of the login token, and every call fails with 401.

How do you keep my YouCanBook.me credentials?

The login stores them encrypted in the authorization grant of your connection. The server uses them to call the YouCanBook.me API for you and to derive a private account id for usage metering. usefulapi does not show them on any page or in any reply. To stop all access, remove the connector and change or delete these credentials in YouCanBook.me.

Can the AI change my YouCanBook.me data?

Yes, if you approve it. 9 of the 18 YouCanBook.me tools can create or change data. The other 9 are marked read-only. Most MCP clients ask you to approve a tool call before it runs.

What does it cost?

The Free plan gives 100 tool calls / month. Pro costs $9/mo or $90/yr, with unlimited tool calls, for this YouCanBook.me server only. Run youcanbookme_usage_status to see how many calls you used.

How do I subscribe or cancel?

Ask the AI to run youcanbookme_upgrade: it returns a Stripe Checkout link. To cancel, run youcanbookme_cancel_subscription. Pro continues to the end of the paid period.

What if a YouCanBook.me tool that I need is missing?

Tell the AI what you wanted to do. It can send the request with youcanbookme_request_feature. We store the text with the server name, the type of AI client and the tool you tried, not with your account, and read every request when we plan new tools. You can send up to 5 requests per day.

Which AI clients can I use?

Any client that supports remote MCP servers (Streamable HTTP) with OAuth login: Claude (web and desktop), Claude Code, Cursor, VS Code, Windsurf and others.

This is a Model Context Protocol endpoint — meant to be connected from an AI client, not opened in a browser. An invalid_token response at the URL is the auth gate working as designed; clients authenticate automatically.
