Talkspresso

Manage a Talkspresso business via the REST API using curl and jq.

Setup

The user needs a TALKSPRESSO_API_KEY. If missing:

1. Direct them to https://app.talkspresso.com/settings/api-keys to generate one
2. If they don't have a Talkspresso account, direct them to https://talkspresso.com/signup
3. Set it: export TALKSPRESSO_API_KEY="tsp_..."

If the user is new to Talkspresso, help them set up: profile, timezone, availability, first service.

API Pattern

# GET
curl -s -H "Authorization: Bearer $TALKSPRESSO_API_KEY" \
  "https://api.talkspresso.com/ENDPOINT" | jq .data

# POST
curl -s -X POST -H "Authorization: Bearer $TALKSPRESSO_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"key":"value"}' \

# DELETE
