# Meeting scheduling with Cronofy

Integrate Whereby Embedded with Cronofy for robust scheduling capabilities

Whereby's API and SDK allow you to seamlessly embed video calling into your platform. Often times in order for a video call to take place, you need to schedule something between multiple various parties. Enter Cronofy:

[**Cronofy**](https://www.cronofy.com/?utm_source=whereby\&utm_medium=docs) **offers a robust, reliable, and powerful scheduling infrastructure. Now, it has a custom integration built just for Whereby.**

{% hint style="info" %}
This feature is currently in beta and requires your Cronofy organization to be flagged for testing. If you would like to be a test user, please contact <support@cronofy.com>\
\
You can create a Cronofy account [via their website](https://app.cronofy.com/sign_up/developer?utm_source=whereby\&utm_medium=docs)
{% endhint %}

### Creating events with Whereby

Cronofy has a complete [API reference available](https://docs.cronofy.com/developers/api/conferencing-services/create/?utm_source=whereby\&utm_medium=docs), below is the basics to get things working:

1. From the Whereby integration page, copy the `profile_id`
2. Use the `profile_id` in the `conferencing` object in an event creation request

```json
{
  "event_id": "cronofy-whereby-001",
  "summary": "Consultation with Dr R. Astley",
  "description": "We'll discuss what it means to never give up",
  "start": "2024-08-13T16:00:00Z",
  "end": "2024-08-13T17:00:00Z",
  "tzid": "America/Detroit",
  "conferencing": {
    "profile_id": "int_667c316c707e9e0a5ec87fe2_0000000000"
  }
}
```
