Scheduled Calls lets your customers book a future video meeting with one of your agents, receive reminders, and join the meeting when the slot arrives — all tied to an ApifyCloud video app.

What it is

A scheduling layer that sits on top of Video. Instead of joining a call right now, a customer books a time; an agent is assigned; both sides get the same meeting link when the time comes.
  • Bookings can be created by agents, admins, customers (via a public page), or an external system (via the API).
  • Availability is driven by each agent’s working hours, with exceptions and ad-hoc “do not disturb” windows.
  • Reminders are sent automatically before the meeting.
  • Status of every booking is tracked through a full lifecycle (scheduled → confirmed → started → completed, or cancelled / no-show).
The meeting itself uses the exact same Video runtime described in Video — Overview. Scheduled Calls adds the “when” and the “who” on top; the actual room is the same one the customer would enter from an instant link.

When to use it

Scheduling is a fit whenever the call can’t (or shouldn’t) happen the moment the customer clicks:

Sales demos

High-AOV or consultative sales that require preparation on both sides.

Onboarding & KYC

Scheduled document review, identity verification, or guided setup.

Consultations

Healthcare, legal, or advisory sessions delivered remotely.

Tier-2 support

A follow-up slot after a front-line ticket gets escalated.

How it fits together

1

Customer books a time

Through the public booking page, an agent-assisted flow, or an external system calling the API.
2

An agent is assigned

Either explicitly (URL-forced or customer-picked) or automatically from the pool of available agents.
3

Reminders go out

Invitation on booking, plus reminders at configured intervals before the meeting (24h / 1h / 15m by default).
4

Both sides join the same meeting

When the slot arrives, the customer opens their reminder link and the agent opens theirs — they land in the same Video meeting.
5

The lifecycle closes

On end, the booking moves to completed. If nobody joined, it auto-transitions to no_show.
