## Description

Books a client into a one-on-one service appointment (personal training, massage, etc.). All five core parameters are required: `clientId`, `locationId`, `sessionTypeId`, `startDateTime`, and `staffId`. Use **Search Clients** to find the client ID, **List Session Types** to find `sessionTypeId`, and **List Staff** to find `staffId`. `startDateTime` format: ISO 8601 `YYYY-MM-DDTHH:MM:SS` (e.g., `2026-07-15T10:00:00`). Location IDs are returned by **Get Site Info**. [See the documentation](https://developers.mindbodyonline.com/ui/documentation/public-api#/http/api-endpoints/appointment/add-appointment)

```ts
import { Client } from "@modelcontextprotocol/sdk/client/index.js"
import { StreamableHTTPClientTransport } from "@modelcontextprotocol/sdk/client/streamableHttp.js"
import { PipedreamClient } from "@pipedream/sdk"

const pd = new PipedreamClient({
  projectId: process.env.PIPEDREAM_PROJECT_ID!,
  clientId: process.env.PIPEDREAM_CLIENT_ID!,
  clientSecret: process.env.PIPEDREAM_CLIENT_SECRET!,
  projectEnvironment: "production",
})

const accessToken = await pd.rawAccessToken

const transport = new StreamableHTTPClientTransport(
  new URL("https://remote.mcp.pipedream.net/v3"),
  {
    requestInit: {
      headers: {
        Authorization: `Bearer ${accessToken}`,

        "x-pd-app-slug": "mindbody",
      },
    },
  },
)

const mcp = new Client({ name: "my-agent", version: "1.0.0" })
await mcp.connect(transport)

const { tools } = await mcp.listTools()

// listTools() hands your model this tool's input schema, so it can
// fill the arguments itself:
const result = await mcp.callTool({
  name: "mindbody-book-appointment",
  arguments: {
    clientId: "Client ID",
    locationId: 10,
  },
})
```
