# Introduction

We provide a full REST API to allow developpers to integate Vyte into their application.

WARNING

The V2 of the API is in beta mode. Feel free to contact us via Intercom or via email at support@vyte.in if you find a problem or have any suggestions.

BASE URL

https://api.vyte.in/

# Authentification

We use API keys to authenticate requests.

If you haven’t already, you will first have to create an organization. Then, you will be able to retrieve your key on the API key tab.

REQUEST EXAMPLE

curl \
--request GET 'https://api.vyte.in/v2/events' \
--header 'Authorization: vkjvi2bvfo54ssbybmcts0x42z1sbzm6t0mot8trh8i03reno0' \

# Vyteme or not Vyteme ?

There is, in the Event object, a boolean named vyteme. To understand clearly what it means, we have to present the two way of using Vyte.

TL;DR: in an event, if vyteme is set to true, you are in the booking page use case and the created_by.user is the id of the user who owns the Vyte Page; on the contrary, the created_by.user will be the id of the user who has created the event.

# Vyte as a smart group scheduling tool

The first use case of Vyte is to allow a group of people to decide on dates and/or places to meet.

The idea is that one person will create an event and invite people to this event. Then, these invitees will have to agree on a date and a place for this event.

WARNING

In this case, what we called the creator (the person corresponding to created_by.user) of the event is the Vyte user who create the event.

Example: I want to organize a meeting with all the dev team to speak about a new feature. I will create a new event and invite the all team. Then, we will be able to vote for a date and a place for the meeting, and everybody will be informed about where and when we meet once the event is confirmed. So here, the created_by.user is mine.

# Vyte as a booking page

The seconde use case of Vyte is to present a user availabilties to someone who wants to meet with him. This is what we call a Vyteme/Booking Page.

In this case, if someone want to meet with me, I will provide them with the link of my Vyteme Page. He will be able to see my availabilities, pick one or several and create an event.

So, here comes the vyteme term. In the following documentation, when the vyteme key of an Event object is set to true, that means we are in this use case.

WARNING

Here is the tricky part. When an event is a Vyteme event, the creator is the person who owns the Vyteme Page.

Example: as a Sales of the company, I want to meet with a new customer to make a demo of our product. I will send to him the link of my Vyte Page. The customer will be able to book a meeting according to his availabilities. Here, the created_by.user is the id of the Sales.

# To sum up

Here is a table to sum up the differences in the Event object between the two use cases :

Use case vyteme created_by.user
Booking page true The id of the user who has the booking page.
Smart group scheduling false The id of the user who create the event.
