How To Create my Scheduler Page?

Task:

How do I create my Scheduler page? Do I need an account to log in to Scheduler?

Requirements:

• You need to have the account connect to Nylas with at least calendar scope.
• You need the Access Code of this account.

Instructions:

There are two different ways for creating your Scheduler page.

• Using HTML file to set up an editor UI
• Calling API endpoint directly without UI

Outcome:

 The results for the above two ways are the same. The differences are:

• Using an HTML file (UI-based interface):
  • Pros: 
    • User friendly. Can be embedded in your application and is good for end-user to create and edit their own settings.
  • Cons:
    • Difficult to bulk create pages.
    • Some settings may not available from the UI.
• Using API endpoint:
  • Pros:
    • You can pass more details in the payload.
    • Easy to bulk create pages.
  • Cons:
    • Need more time to prepare payloads.
    • Does not have an editor set up automatically.
