Mindbody recipes
Text clients about classes and appointments from the studio’s own number.
Two recipes for Mindbody. Each names its trigger and the BlueBot step, lists the fields to map and says how to test it with your own number before anyone else gets a text.
How Mindbody connects
- : BlueBot’s Zapier app has a Send Text action and instant triggers for incoming texts and every change of state.
Confirm each booking
| Part | What it is |
|---|---|
| Trigger | When a client books a class or appointment in Mindbody |
| Action | BlueBot’s Send Text action |
| Connects through |
Steps
- Start a Zap with Mindbody’s trigger for a new booking.
- Add BlueBot’s Send Text action and map the client’s phone to To.
- Write the text with the class name and time mapped in.
Map the fields
| BlueBot field | Map it to |
|---|---|
| To | The person’s mobile number from Mindbody. US numbers can leave off the +1. |
| Text | Hi {{first_name}}, you’re in for {{class_name}} on {{date}} at {{time}}. See you on the mat! |
{{first_name}} in the text | Mindbody’s first name field. |
{{class_name}} in the text | Mindbody’s class name field. |
{{date}} in the text | Mindbody’s date field. |
{{time}} in the text | Mindbody’s time field. |
| Metadata | source set to mindbody, and record_id set to the record’s id, so the status and reply webhooks for this text can find the record again. |
| Service | Auto, the default: iMessage when the person uses it, otherwise SMS through your iPhone. |
Test it
Put your own number in To and press Test step. A text arrives on your phone from your own number, and Zapier shows the message BlueBot returned with state: "queued". Then map Mindbody’s field back into To and turn the Zap on.

Before you turn it on
- Text only people who asked to hear from you. Anyone who replies STOP goes on your stop list, and BlueBot cancels texts to them.
- A text that can’t go yet waits with a hold rather than failing: quiet hours, your Mac away, a daily limit.
- on the integrations page says what else the two do together.
