Assessment: A booking-page service with a Team-plan REST API over HTTP Basic auth and one account-wide key, SOC 2 Type II and ISO 27001 on its security page, and a 14-day trial without a card. Its API reference renders only by JavaScript and its status page did not resolve for us, so endpoints, limits and incidents are unverified.

## Before you call it

1. Ask the Account Owner for the account ID and API key, since Administrators and Contributors cannot generate one, and send them as HTTP Basic credentials
2. Read the API reference at ycbm.stoplight.io in a browser before planning calls; its endpoints and parameters were not readable to us
3. Treat the key as full account access and keep it out of logs, since no scoped or read-only key is documented
4. Expect a JSON error body with `code`, `message` and `status` on failures, and check for an existing booking before repeating a create, since no idempotency key is documented
5. Use booking-page webhooks for booking, reschedule, cancel, reminder, follow-up and no-show events instead of polling

## Connect

```bash
curl -u "$YCBM_ACCOUNT_ID:$YCBM_API_KEY" https://api.youcanbook.me/v1/profiles
