Connecting Whereby to meetergo

To get started, you'll first need an API key from Whereby. Then, you'll pop it into meetergo.

Part 1: Get Your Whereby API Key

1. Log in to your Whereby account and head to your account dashboard.
2. Find the "Configure" section (it's often in your settings or profile area).
3. Under "API keys," click the "Generate key" button.

4. Give your new API key a name you'll recognize, like "meetergo" or similar.
5. Copy this key! You'll need it in the next step. Keep it safe.

Once you have your API key copied, you're ready to connect it to meetergo. This key is like a secret handshake that allows meetergo and Whereby to work together.

1. In your meetergo account, navigate to the Integrations page. You can go there directly: https://my.meetergo.com/integrations.
2. Look for Whereby in the list of available integrations and click on it.
3. You'll see a field asking for your API key. Paste the key you copied from Whereby into this field.
4. Click the "Connect" button.

And just like that, meetergo and Whereby are now connected! Your connection is established and ready to use.

Using Whereby for Your Meetings

Now that Whereby is connected, you need to tell meetergo which meeting types should use it.

Choose Whereby as Your Meeting Channel

1. Go to your Meeting Types page in meetergo: https://my.meetergo.com/meeting-types/.
2. Click on the meeting type you want to use Whereby for (or create a new one if you prefer).
3. In the settings for that meeting type, find the "Venue" section.
4. Select Whereby from the list of available channels.
5. Make sure to save your changes to the meeting type.

That's it! With Whereby selected as the channel, meetergo will automatically generate a unique Whereby meeting link whenever someone books this specific meeting type. This link will be included in the calendar event and any confirmation emails, making it super easy for everyone to join.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: What if I can't find the "API keys" section in Whereby?

A: Whereby sometimes updates its interface. Make sure you're logged into the correct Whereby account. Look for sections like 'Settings,' 'Account,' 'Developer,' or 'API.' If you're still having trouble, Whereby's own help documentation or support team will be the best resource for navigating their platform.

Q: Do I need a specific Whereby plan for this integration?

A: API access is typically available on many Whereby plans, but features can change. It's always a good idea to check Whereby's current pricing or plan features on their website to confirm that API access is included with your subscription.

Q: Will connecting Whereby add video links to my meetings that were already booked?

A: No, the Whereby integration will only apply to new meetings that are booked after you've successfully connected Whereby and selected it as a channel for a specific meeting type. Existing meetings will retain their original details.

Q: What happens if I disconnect Whereby from meetergo?

A: If you disconnect Whereby, meetergo will no longer be able to automatically create Whereby meeting links for new bookings. You'll need to manually add video conferencing details or choose a different connected channel for your meeting types. Meetings already booked with a Whereby link (while it was connected) should still have their links.
