Cal.com integration

The Cal.com FlowApp demonstrates a full-featured integration with multiple actions, dynamic fetchers, and conditional schemas.

App definition

IqraInfrastructure/Managers/FlowApp/Apps/CalCom/CalComApp.cs

using IqraCore.Interfaces.FlowApp;
using IqraCore.Interfaces.Integration;
using IqraInfrastructure.Managers.FlowApp.Apps.CalCom.Actions;
using IqraInfrastructure.Managers.FlowApp.Apps.CalCom.Fetchers;
using Microsoft.Extensions.Logging;

namespace IqraInfrastructure.Managers.FlowApp.Apps.CalCom
{
    public class CalComApp : IFlowApp
    {
        public string AppKey => "cal_com";
        public string Name => "Cal.com";
        public string IconUrl => "https://cal.com/favicon.ico";
        public string? IntegrationType => "cal_com";

        private readonly IHttpClientFactory _httpClientFactory;
        private readonly ILogger<CalComApp> _logger;
        private const string BaseUrl = "https://api.cal.com/";

        public IReadOnlyList<IFlowAction> Actions { get; }
        public IReadOnlyList<IFlowDataFetcher> DataFetchers { get; }

        public CalComApp(IHttpClientFactory httpClientFactory, ILogger<CalComApp> logger)
        {
            _httpClientFactory = httpClientFactory;
            _logger = logger;

            Actions = new List<IFlowAction>
            {
                new AddGuestsAction(this),
                new BookMeetingAction(this),
                new CancelBookingAction(this),
                new GetAllBookingsAction(this),
                new GetBookingAction(this),
                new GetSlotsAction(this),
                new MarkAbsentAction(this),
                new RescheduleBookingAction(this)
            };

            DataFetchers = new List<IFlowDataFetcher>
            {
                new GetEventTypesByIdFetcher(this)
            };
        }

        public HttpClient CreateClient()
        {
            var client = _httpClientFactory.CreateClient();
            client.BaseAddress = new Uri(BaseUrl);
            return client;
        }
    }
}

Key patterns:

Shared HttpClient factory: The CreateClient() helper method is used by all actions and fetchers
Base URL constant: Centralized API endpoint configuration
DI integration: Leverages IHttpClientFactory and ILogger<T>

Action with multiple output ports

The BookMeetingAction handles different API response codes with specific output ports:

IqraInfrastructure/Managers/FlowApp/Apps/CalCom/Actions/BookMeetingAction.cs

using IqraCore.Entities.FlowApp;
using IqraCore.Interfaces.FlowApp;
using IqraCore.Models.FlowApp.Integration;
using IqraInfrastructure.Managers.FlowApp.Apps.CalCom.Models;
using System.Net;
using System.Net.Http.Json;
using System.Text.Json;

namespace IqraInfrastructure.Managers.FlowApp.Apps.CalCom.Actions
{
    public partial class BookMeetingAction : IFlowAction
    {
        private readonly CalComApp _app;

        public BookMeetingAction(CalComApp app) => _app = app;

        public string ActionKey => "BookMeeting";
        public string Name => "Book a Meeting";
        public string Description => "Schedules a new booking on Cal.com.";

        public IReadOnlyList<ActionOutputPort> GetOutputPorts()
        {
            return new List<ActionOutputPort>
            {
                new ActionOutputPort { Key = "success", Label = "Success (201)" },
                new ActionOutputPort { Key = "conflict", Label = "Slot Taken (409)" },
                new ActionOutputPort { Key = "error", Label = "Error" }
            };
        }

        public async Task<ActionExecutionResult> ExecuteAsync(
            JsonElement input, 
            BusinessAppIntegrationDecryptedModel integration)
        {
            try
            {
                var apiKey = integration.DecryptedFields["ApiKey"];
                var client = _app.CreateClient();

                // Build request from validated input
                var request = new CreateBookingRequest
                {
                    Start = input.GetProperty("start").GetString() ?? string.Empty,
                    Attendee = new Attendee
                    {
                        Name = input.GetProperty("attendeeName").GetString() ?? "Guest",
                        Email = input.GetProperty("attendeeEmail").GetString() ?? "",
                        TimeZone = input.TryGetProperty("attendeeTimeZone", out var tz) 
                            ? tz.GetString() ?? "UTC" 
                            : "UTC",
                        PhoneNumber = input.TryGetProperty("attendeePhone", out var ph) 
                            ? ph.GetString() 
                            : null,
                        Language = "en"
                    },
                    Metadata = new Dictionary<string, string>()
                };

                // Add optional notes
                if (input.TryGetProperty("notes", out var notes))
                {
                    request.Metadata.Add("notes", notes.GetString() ?? "");
                }

                // Handle polymorphic targeting (ID vs Slug)
                if (input.TryGetProperty("eventTypeId", out var id))
                {
                    request.EventTypeId = id.GetInt32();
                }
                else if (input.TryGetProperty("teamSlug", out var team))
                {
                    request.TeamSlug = team.GetString();
                    request.EventTypeSlug = input.GetProperty("eventTypeSlug").GetString();
                }
                else
                {
                    request.Username = input.GetProperty("username").GetString();
                    request.EventTypeSlug = input.GetProperty("eventTypeSlug").GetString();
                }

                // Execute API call
                var httpRequest = new HttpRequestMessage(HttpMethod.Post, "/v2/bookings");
                httpRequest.Content = new StringContent(
                    JsonSerializer.Serialize(request), 
                    System.Text.Encoding.UTF8, 
                    "application/json"
                );
                httpRequest.Headers.Add("Authorization", $"Bearer {apiKey}");
                httpRequest.Headers.Add("cal-api-version", "2024-08-13");
                
                var response = await client.SendAsync(httpRequest);
                var responseContent = await response.Content.ReadAsStringAsync();

                // Handle success
                if (response.IsSuccessStatusCode)
                {
                    var resultData = JsonSerializer.Deserialize<CalComResponse<BookingResponseData>>(responseContent);
                    return ActionExecutionResult.SuccessPort("success", resultData?.Data);
                }

                // Handle slot conflict (common in real-time booking)
                if (response.StatusCode == HttpStatusCode.Conflict)
                {
                    return ActionExecutionResult.SuccessPort(
                        "conflict", 
                        new { message = "Time slot is no longer available." }
                    );
                }

                // General error
                return ActionExecutionResult.Failure(
                    "API_ERROR", 
                    $"Cal.com Error: {response.StatusCode} - {responseContent}"
                );
            }
            catch (Exception ex)
            {
                return ActionExecutionResult.Failure("EXCEPTION", ex.Message);
            }
        }
    }
}

Key patterns:

Multiple output ports: success, conflict, and error allow the agent to handle different scenarios
Optional fields: Uses TryGetProperty for optional inputs like notes and attendeePhone
Polymorphic input handling: Supports three different booking methods (by ID, by username, or by team)
Structured error responses: Returns specific error codes and messages

Schema with conditional fields

The BookMeeting.json schema demonstrates oneOf for mutually exclusive field groups:

IqraInfrastructure/Managers/FlowApp/Apps/CalCom/Actions/BookMeeting.json

{
  "type": "object",
  "title": "Book a Meeting",
  "required": ["start", "attendeeName", "attendeeEmail"],
  "properties": {
    "start": {
      "type": "string",
      "title": "Start Time",
      "description": "ISO 8601 Date string (e.g. 2024-01-01T10:00:00Z)"
    },
    "attendeeName": {
      "type": "string",
      "title": "Attendee Name"
    },
    "attendeeEmail": {
      "type": "string",
      "title": "Attendee Email"
    },
    "attendeeTimeZone": {
      "type": "string",
      "title": "Attendee TimeZone",
      "default": "UTC"
    },
    "attendeePhone": {
      "type": "string",
      "title": "Attendee Phone",
      "description": "Required for SMS reminders"
    },
    "notes": {
      "type": "string",
      "title": "Additional Notes"
    }
  },
  "oneOf": [
    {
      "title": "By Event ID",
      "required": ["eventTypeId"],
      "properties": {
        "eventTypeId": {
          "type": "integer",
          "title": "Event Type ID",
          "x-fetcher": "GetEventTypesById"
        }
      }
    },
    {
      "title": "By User & Slug",
      "required": ["username", "eventTypeSlug"],
      "properties": {
        "username": {
          "type": "string",
          "title": "Username"
        },
        "eventTypeSlug": {
          "type": "string",
          "title": "Event Type Slug"
        }
      }
    },
    {
      "title": "By Team & Slug",
      "required": ["teamSlug", "eventTypeSlug"],
      "properties": {
        "teamSlug": {
          "type": "string",
          "title": "Team Slug"
        },
        "eventTypeSlug": {
          "type": "string",
          "title": "Event Type Slug"
        }
      }
    }
  ]
}

Key patterns:

Common base properties: Fields like start, attendeeName, attendeeEmail are always required
Optional fields: attendeeTimeZone has a default value
oneOf variants: Three mutually exclusive ways to target an event type
Dynamic fetcher: x-fetcher connects the field to a data source

Data fetcher with authentication

IqraInfrastructure/Managers/FlowApp/Apps/CalCom/Fetchers/GetEventTypesByIdFetcher.cs

using IqraCore.Entities.FlowApp;
using IqraCore.Interfaces.FlowApp;
using IqraCore.Models.FlowApp.Integration;
using IqraInfrastructure.Managers.FlowApp.Apps.CalCom.Models;
using System.Net.Http.Json;
using System.Text.Json;

namespace IqraInfrastructure.Managers.FlowApp.Apps.CalCom.Fetchers
{
    public class GetEventTypesByIdFetcher : IFlowDataFetcher
    {
        private readonly CalComApp _app;
        
        public GetEventTypesByIdFetcher(CalComApp app) { _app = app; }

        public string FetcherKey => "GetEventTypesById";

        public async Task<List<DynamicOption>> FetchOptionsAsync(
            BusinessAppIntegrationDecryptedModel? integration, 
            JsonElement context)
        {
            if (integration == null) return new();

            try
            {
                var apiKey = integration.DecryptedFields["ApiKey"];
                var client = _app.CreateClient();

                var httpRequest = new HttpRequestMessage(HttpMethod.Get, "/v2/event-types");
                httpRequest.Headers.Add("Authorization", $"Bearer {apiKey}");
                httpRequest.Headers.Add("cal-api-version", "2024-06-14");
                
                var response = await client.SendAsync(httpRequest);
                if (!response.IsSuccessStatusCode) return new();

                var result = await response.Content.ReadFromJsonAsync<CalComResponse<List<EventTypeDto>>>();

                return result?.Data?.Select(e => new DynamicOption
                {
                    Label = $"{e.Title} ({e.Length}m)",
                    Value = e.Id,
                    Description = $"ID: {e.Id}"
                }).ToList() ?? new();
            }
            catch { return new(); }
        }
    }
}

Key patterns:

Null check: Returns empty list if integration is not provided
Error tolerance: Catches all exceptions and returns empty list (prevents UI errors)
Rich labels: Combines title and duration for better UX (“30min Consultation (30m)”)
API versioning: Uses version headers for API compatibility

Common patterns

Pattern: Handling optional fields

// Check if field exists before accessing
if (input.TryGetProperty("optionalField", out var field))
{
    var value = field.GetString();
    // Use the value
}

// Provide defaults for missing fields
var timezone = input.TryGetProperty("timeZone", out var tz) 
    ? tz.GetString() ?? "UTC" 
    : "UTC";

Pattern: Returning structured data

// Return useful data for downstream nodes
return ActionExecutionResult.SuccessPort("success", new 
{
    bookingId = result.Id,
    bookingUid = result.Uid,
    confirmationUrl = result.Url,
    startTime = result.StartTime,
    endTime = result.EndTime,
    attendees = result.Attendees.Select(a => new { a.Name, a.Email })
});

Pattern: Multiple authentication methods

public async Task<ActionExecutionResult> ExecuteAsync(
    JsonElement input, 
    BusinessAppIntegrationDecryptedModel integration)
{
    // Support both API key and OAuth token
    string authHeader;
    if (integration.DecryptedFields.ContainsKey("ApiKey"))
    {
        authHeader = $"Bearer {integration.DecryptedFields["ApiKey"]}";
    }
    else if (integration.DecryptedFields.ContainsKey("AccessToken"))
    {
        authHeader = $"Bearer {integration.DecryptedFields["AccessToken"]}";
    }
    else
    {
        return ActionExecutionResult.Failure("AUTH_ERROR", "No valid credentials found");
    }
    
    httpRequest.Headers.Add("Authorization", authHeader);
}

Pattern: Context-dependent fetcher

public async Task<List<DynamicOption>> FetchOptionsAsync(
    BusinessAppIntegrationDecryptedModel? integration, 
    JsonElement context)
{
    // Get parent selection from form state
    if (context.TryGetProperty("teamId", out var teamIdElement))
    {
        var teamId = teamIdElement.GetInt32();
        // Fetch only members of this team
        var response = await client.GetAsync($"/teams/{teamId}/members");
        // ...
    }
    else
    {
        // No team selected, return all members
        var response = await client.GetAsync("/members");
        // ...
    }
}

Pattern: Rate limit handling

public async Task<ActionExecutionResult> ExecuteAsync(
    JsonElement input, 
    BusinessAppIntegrationDecryptedModel integration)
{
    var response = await client.SendAsync(httpRequest);
    
    if (response.StatusCode == HttpStatusCode.TooManyRequests)
    {
        var retryAfter = response.Headers.RetryAfter?.Delta ?? TimeSpan.FromSeconds(60);
        
        return ActionExecutionResult.Failure(
            "RATE_LIMIT", 
            $"Rate limit exceeded. Retry after {retryAfter.TotalSeconds} seconds."
        );
    }
    
    // Continue with normal processing
}

Pattern: Pagination support

public async Task<ActionExecutionResult> ExecuteAsync(
    JsonElement input, 
    BusinessAppIntegrationDecryptedModel integration)
{
    var allItems = new List<Item>();
    var page = 1;
    var hasMore = true;
    
    while (hasMore)
    {
        var response = await client.GetAsync($"/items?page={page}&limit=100");
        var result = await response.Content.ReadFromJsonAsync<PaginatedResponse>();
        
        allItems.AddRange(result.Items);
        hasMore = result.HasMore;
        page++;
        
        // Safety limit
        if (page > 100) break;
    }
    
    return ActionExecutionResult.SuccessPort("success", new { items = allItems, count = allItems.Count });
}

Pattern: Webhook registration

public class RegisterWebhookAction : IFlowAction
{
    public string ActionKey => "RegisterWebhook";
    public string Name => "Register Webhook";
    public string Description => "Subscribe to real-time events.";
    
    public async Task<ActionExecutionResult> ExecuteAsync(
        JsonElement input, 
        BusinessAppIntegrationDecryptedModel integration)
    {
        var webhookUrl = input.GetProperty("webhookUrl").GetString();
        var events = input.GetProperty("events").EnumerateArray()
            .Select(e => e.GetString())
            .ToList();
        
        var request = new CreateWebhookRequest
        {
            Url = webhookUrl,
            Events = events,
            Active = true
        };
        
        var response = await client.PostAsJsonAsync("/webhooks", request);
        var result = await response.Content.ReadFromJsonAsync<WebhookResponse>();
        
        return ActionExecutionResult.SuccessPort("success", new 
        { 
            webhookId = result.Id,
            secret = result.Secret // Store for signature verification
        });
    }
}

Testing FlowApps

Create unit tests for your actions:

[Fact]
public async Task BookMeeting_ValidInput_ReturnsSuccess()
{
    // Arrange
    var httpClientFactory = CreateMockHttpClientFactory();
    var logger = Mock.Of<ILogger<CalComApp>>();
    var app = new CalComApp(httpClientFactory, logger);
    var action = new BookMeetingAction(app);
    
    var input = JsonSerializer.SerializeToElement(new
    {
        start = "2024-01-15T10:00:00Z",
        attendeeName = "John Doe",
        attendeeEmail = "[email protected]",
        eventTypeId = 123
    });
    
    var integration = new BusinessAppIntegrationDecryptedModel
    {
        DecryptedFields = new Dictionary<string, string> { ["ApiKey"] = "test_key" }
    };
    
    // Act
    var result = await action.ExecuteAsync(input, integration);
    
    // Assert
    Assert.True(result.Success);
    Assert.Equal("success", result.OutputPortKey);
    Assert.NotNull(result.Data);
}
