Your first booking in ten minutes

Four steps from the API key to a confirmed booking.

1. 1

   Create an API key

   Open Settings, then Developers, and create a key with the scope bookings. Keep it on your server, never in the browser.

   Create your first booking

   Send a service, a start time and a customer. Atlas answers with the booking and its confirmation link.

   book.js

   JavaScriptCopy

   import { Atlas } from '@atlas-example/client'; const atlas = new Atlas(process.env.ATLAS_KEY); const booking = await atlas.bookings.create({  service: 'svc_haircut',  starts: '2026-10-24T15:00:00+02:00',  customer: { name: 'Lena Brandt', email: 'lena@example.com' },});

   Listen for changes

   Add a webhook for booking.updated, so your system knows when a customer moves or cancels.
