Get booking is a WordPress ability from LatePoint — usable via Easy MCP AI, which connects Claude, ChatGPT, and any AI assistant to your site.
Install Free Plugin →Get booking
Read-onlyLook up the complete details of a single LatePoint booking by its ID.
Requires the LatePoint plugin on WordPress 6.9+ (the WordPress Abilities API is only available from 6.9 onward). All abilities also require the site's 'latepoint_abilities_api' master toggle to be enabled; write abilities additionally require the 'latepoint_abilities_api_edit' setting, and destructive abilities additionally require the 'latepoint_abilities_api_delete' setting. Each ability further requires the current user to hold the matching LatePoint capability (e.g. 'booking__view', 'customer__edit'), and some abilities also verify the user is allowed to act on that specific record.
What it does
This ability returns a single booking record with all of its related data: status, customer, agent, service and location IDs, the scheduled date and start/end times, duration, resolved customer/service/agent names, and any notes attached to the order. It's the go-to lookup when you already know a booking's numeric ID and want the full picture in one call. If no booking exists with the given ID, the ability returns an error instead of a result. Because it resolves names for the customer, service, and agent, an AI assistant can describe a booking in plain language without making separate lookups.

Inputs
| Name | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|

Returns
The full serialized booking record — id, status, customer/agent/service/location IDs, start date, start/end times, duration, resolved customer/service/agent names, and notes — or a not-found error if the ID doesn't match any booking.
Permission
The current user must have LatePoint's 'booking__view' capability, and the site's 'latepoint_abilities_api' Abilities API setting must be enabled. It also verifies the current user is allowed to view this specific record.
