### Answer Yes, Vapi can be configured to book clients to service-type calendars, including choosing the type of service, selecting a preferred barber, and scheduling a time in one call. You can set up an assistant with functions that handle such specific tasks like scheduling appointments by integrating with your service's calendar API. For example, you can create custom functions within your Vapi assistant that interact with external systems (like Google Calendar or Microsoft Outlook) to check for available time slots, book appointments, and handle specific service requests. This involves setting up function calls that your assistant can use during a conversation to execute these tasks [(1)]() . Here’s a basic idea of how you might set up the function calls in your assistant configuration:

json
{
  "functions": [
    {
      "name": "bookAppointment",
      "description": "Books an appointment for a specified service and time.",
      "parameters": {
        "type": "object",
        "properties": {
          "serviceType": {
            "type": "string",
            "description": "The type of barber service requested."
          },
          "barberId": {
            "type": "string",
            "description": "Identifier for the preferred barber."
          },
          "dateTime": {
            "type": "string",
            "description": "The date and time of the appointment in ISO format."
          }
        }
      }
    }
  ]
}

Additionally, you'll need to implement server-side logic to handle these API calls and interact with your calendar system. You can configure the

serverUrl

in your Vapi dashboard to point to your server endpoint handling these requests. For more details on how to implement these custom functions and integrate with external APIs, you can refer to the Vapi documentation on function calling.

I am guessing this is an Inbound Static Assistant. 1. Create the assistant 2. Create the tool calling for what you asked: book clients to service type calendars 3. Automate and Test 4.Complete.
