Read Mindbody classes, schedules, clients, staff and sales; book clients and appointments. Hosted by usefulapi — connect from Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, or any MCP client.
Team and Enterprise: an Owner adds the connector for the organization first.
Run this command, then run /mcp in Claude Code to log in:
Add to Cursor or add this to ~/.cursor/mcp.json:
{
"mcpServers": {
"mindbody": {
"url": "https://mindbody.usefulapi.io/mcp"
}
}
}Add to VS Code or add this to .vscode/mcp.json:
{
"servers": {
"mindbody": {
"type": "http",
"url": "https://mindbody.usefulapi.io/mcp"
}
}
}No Add custom MCP server option? It depends on your account or workspace settings: see OpenAI's guide.
Run these commands. The second one opens the login page:
Other MCP clients (Windsurf, Cline, Zed and more): add the URL as a remote MCP server (Streamable HTTP). The client then opens the login page in your browser. Do not add an Authorization header: see Before you connect.
The login page asks for your Mindbody API key and Site ID.
Optional: Staff username and Staff password.
Your credentials are used only to call the Mindbody API on your behalf and to derive a private account id; they are never shown to anyone. Note: Mindbody meters and bills API calls to your developer account.
Add only the URL. Do not add an Authorization header or an API key to the client config. The server signs you in with OAuth: the login page asks for your Mindbody API key and Site ID. If the config has such a header, remove it: some clients then send that header instead of the login token, and every call fails with 401.
Turn on the Mindbody connector, then ask in plain words. The AI picks the tools.
| Tool | Type | What it does |
|---|---|---|
mindbody_list_sites | read | List sites List the Mindbody sites (businesses) your developer account can access, or details for specific site ids. A cheap way to confirm the API key works. Mindbody: GET /site/sites. |
mindbody_list_locations | read | List locations List the business's locations (studios / branches) with address, phone and amenities. Location ids are needed to book appointments. Mindbody: GET /site/locations. |
mindbody_list_session_types | read | List session types List the session types (the bookable kinds of class or appointment, e.g. '60-min massage') used at the site. Session type ids drive appointment availability and booking. Mindbody: GET /site/sessiontypes. |
mindbody_list_classes | read | List scheduled classes List scheduled class occurrences in a date range — time, class description, teacher, location, capacity, booked/waitlist counts and cancellation status. Mindbody: GET /class/classes. |
mindbody_list_class_schedules | read | List class schedules List recurring class schedules (the templates that generate class occurrences) — days, times, teacher, location and date span. Mindbody: GET /class/classschedules. |
mindbody_get_class_visits | read | Get a class's visits (roster) Get one class with its visits — the roster of clients booked into it, with sign-in / late-cancel status. Mindbody: GET /class/classvisits. |
mindbody_list_bookable_items | read | Find bookable appointment slots Find appointment availability — which staff can deliver the given session types, where, and in which time windows. Use before mindbody_add_appointment. Mindbody: GET /appointment/bookableitems. |
mindbody_list_staff_appointments | read | List appointments List booked appointments in a date range, by staff member, client or appointment id — the appointment book. Mindbody: GET /appointment/staffappointments. |
mindbody_list_clients | read | Search clients Search or fetch client records by name/email text or by client ids (max 20 ids) — contact details, status, alerts, home location. Requires a staff user token. Mindbody: GET /client/clients. |
mindbody_list_client_visits | read | List a client's visits List a client's past and scheduled visits (class and appointment attendance) in a date range, optionally only unpaid ones. Mindbody: GET /client/clientvisits. |
mindbody_list_client_memberships | read | List a client's active memberships List a client's active memberships (auto-renewing pricing options) with remaining counts and expiry. Mindbody: GET /client/activeclientmemberships. |
mindbody_get_client_account_balances | read | Get client account balances Get the account balance for one or more clients (what they owe or hold in credit), optionally as of a date. Mindbody: GET /client/clientaccountbalances. |
mindbody_list_staff | read | List staff List staff members (instructors, practitioners). Filter by role, or find who is available for a session type at a location and time (session_type_id + location_id + start_date_time together). Without a staff token only public fields return. Mindbody: GET /staff/staff. |
mindbody_list_services | read | List pricing options List the pricing options (services — class packs, drop-ins, intro offers) for sale at the site, with price, online price, count and expiry. Read only. Mindbody: GET /sale/services. |
mindbody_list_sales | read | List sales List completed sales at the site in a date/time range — purchased items, payments and client. Read only. Mindbody: GET /sale/sales. |
mindbody_add_client_to_class | write | Book a client into a class Book a client into a class (or onto its waiting list). Does not take payment: by default no pricing option is required; set require_payment to insist the client has a usable one on account. Undo from the Mindbody front desk. Pass test: true to validate only. Mindbody: POST /class/addclienttoclass. |
mindbody_add_appointment | write | Book an appointment Book an appointment for a client with a staff member at a location. Find a slot first with mindbody_list_bookable_items. No card is charged; apply_payment (Mindbody's default is true) only applies a pricing option already on the client's account. Pass test: true to validate only. Requires a staff user token. Mindbody: POST /appointment/addappointment. |
mindbody_update_appointment | write | Update an appointment Reschedule or edit an appointment (start/end time, staff, session type, notes — the only fields Mindbody lets you change) and/or move it through its status: confirm, unconfirm, arrive, unarrive, complete. Cancel and late-cancel are deliberately not offered (a late cancel can charge the client). Pass test: true to validate only. Requires a staff user token. Mindbody: POST /appointment/updateappointment. |
mindbody_add_client | write | Add a client Create a new client record (first and last name required; the site may require more — Mindbody reports which). No card or billing data is accepted. Pass test: true to validate only. Mindbody: POST /client/addclient. |
mindbody_update_client | write | Update a client Update fields on an existing client record — only the fields you pass change. No card or billing data is accepted. cross_regional_update (Mindbody default: true) also updates the client's profiles at the region's other sites. Pass test: true to validate only. Mindbody: POST /client/updateclient. |
mindbody_usage_status | Usage status (free-tier meter) Report the caller's current usage: the plan, calls used this month, the limit of the plan (the free monthly cap or the Pro fair use limit), remaining, and whether the limit is reached. Read-only; does not count against the meter. | |
mindbody_request_feature | Request a missing feature Tell usefulapi that the user needs something the Mindbody tools cannot do yet (a missing tool, field or filter). Call it only when the user asks for something none of the tools can do, and tell the user that you send the request. Do not call it for errors or for normal requests. Do not include personal data, credentials or customer records. Stored with the product name and the client type (for example Claude or Cursor), without the user's account. At most 5 requests per day. Does not count against the meter. | |
mindbody_upgrade | Upgrade to Pro (unlimited*) Get Pro: unlimited tool calls (fair use limit: 10,000 a month) on Mindbody (the free tier caps monthly usage). Plans: "monthly" — $9/month; "yearly" — $90/year (2 months free). Cancel any time: Pro then runs to the end of the paid period, so it also suits a one-time job. *A fair use limit applies. For heavy use (near Pro's limit): "plus" or "plus_yearly" — Pro+, $19/month or $190/year, unlimited tool calls (fair use limit: 100,000 a month); an existing Pro subscription changes to Pro+ in place (needs confirm: true; the price difference for the rest of the period is charged at once). Otherwise returns a short link to open in your browser (it opens Stripe Checkout); after payment the account upgrades automatically. Does not count against the meter. | |
mindbody_cancel_subscription | Cancel the Pro subscription Cancel the caller's Mindbody Pro subscription at the end of the paid period (no refund for the current period; Pro continues until then, then the free tier applies). Requires confirm: true. Run mindbody_upgrade later to undo the cancel before the period ends. Does not count against the meter. |
| Plan | Price | Limit |
|---|---|---|
| Free | $0 | 50 tool calls / month |
| Proper user | $9/mo · $90/yr | Unlimited* |
*Pro fair use limit: 10,000 tool calls a month on this server. For more, write to [email protected].
Pro covers this Mindbody server only. Subscribe with mindbody_upgrade (it returns a Stripe Checkout link). Cancel any time with mindbody_cancel_subscription: Pro continues to the end of the paid period, with no refund for the current period, and running mindbody_upgrade before then undoes the cancel. Or write to [email protected].
No. usefulapi is an independent service. It is not affiliated with or endorsed by Mindbody. The server calls the Mindbody API with your own Mindbody access, so it sees only the data that your account can see.
Yes. In Claude, add this server's URL as a custom connector. In ChatGPT, add it as a custom MCP server in Plugins. Then log in once. Cursor, VS Code, Claude Code and Codex work too. See the setup steps.
The login page asks for your Mindbody API key and Site ID. See Before you connect for where to find them.
No. Add only the URL. Do not add an Authorization header or an API key to the client config. The server signs you in with OAuth: the login page asks for your Mindbody API key and Site ID. If the config has such a header, remove it: some clients then send that header instead of the login token, and every call fails with 401.
The login stores them encrypted in the authorization grant of your connection. The server uses them to call the Mindbody API for you and to derive a private account id for usage metering. usefulapi does not show them on any page or in any reply. To stop all access, remove the connector and change or delete these credentials in Mindbody.
Yes, if you approve it. 5 of the 20 Mindbody tools can create or change data. The other 15 are marked read-only. Most MCP clients ask you to approve a tool call before it runs.
The Free plan gives 50 tool calls / month. Pro costs $9/mo or $90/yr, with unlimited tool calls (fair use limit: 10,000 tool calls a month), for this Mindbody server only. Cancel any time: Pro then runs to the end of the paid period. Run mindbody_usage_status to see how many calls you used.
Ask the AI to run mindbody_upgrade: it returns a Stripe Checkout link. To cancel, run mindbody_cancel_subscription. Pro continues to the end of the paid period.
Tell the AI what you wanted to do. It can send the request with mindbody_request_feature. We store the text with the server name, the type of AI client and the tool you tried, not with your account, and read every request when we plan new tools. You can send up to 5 requests per day.
Any client that supports remote MCP servers (Streamable HTTP) with OAuth login: Claude (web and desktop), Claude Code, ChatGPT, Codex, Cursor, VS Code, Windsurf and others.
This is a Model Context Protocol endpoint — meant to be connected from an AI client, not opened in a browser. An invalid_token response at the URL is the auth gate working as designed; clients authenticate automatically.
