Overview
This node integrates with an external appointment management API to perform various operations on appointments, clients, and financial accounts. Specifically for the Agendamento (Appointment) Delete operation, it allows users to delete an existing appointment by its ID. This is useful in scenarios where scheduled appointments need to be canceled or removed from the system.
Practical examples include:
- Automatically deleting canceled appointments from a scheduling system.
- Cleaning up outdated or erroneous appointment entries.
- Integrating with other workflows that manage client bookings and require appointment removal.
