creno

Official Python client for Creno's scheduling and booking API.

from creno import CrenoClient

with CrenoClient(api_key="pk_live_...") as client:
    service_types = client.list_service_types()
    availability = client.get_availability(from_="2026-08-01", to="2026-08-07")
    booking = client.create_booking(
        start_at=availability.slots[0].start_at,
        customer_name="Jane Doe",
        customer_email="jane@example.com",
    )

Install

pip install creno

Requires Python 3.9+. The only runtime dependency is httpx.

Security model

The API key you pass to CrenoClient is the same "publishable" key used by Creno's browser widgets (@creno/react, <creno-widget>). In the browser, safety comes from Creno's per-tenant origin allowlist, not from keeping the key secret. This client makes server-to-server calls with no Origin header, so that allowlist check never applies here. Treat the key as sensitive in your own backend even though it's called "publishable" elsewhere.

Errors

Every non-2xx response raises a subclass of CrenoError (.message, .status_code, .response_body):

list_service_types and get_availability retry automatically (up to 3 attempts with backoff) on network errors or 5xx responses, since they're read-only. create_booking never retries automatically: a lost response after a booking was actually created server-side, followed by a client-side retry, could still submit a second real booking attempt for a real customer, even though Creno's own database can never double-book the same slot. If create_booking raises CrenoAPIError with an unclear outcome, check the tenant's Creno dashboard before retrying by hand.

Dates and times

Slot and Booking fields are real timezone-aware datetime.datetime objects, already parsed from the API's ISO-8601 strings. create_booking's start_at accepts either a timezone-aware datetime or an ISO-8601 string; a naive datetime (no tzinfo) raises ValueError rather than silently guessing a timezone. get_availability's from_/to accept either a datetime.date or a "YYYY-MM-DD" string.

Optional fields you don't have, for example resource_id or service_type_id, should simply be omitted (their default is None). This client drops None values from the request body before sending, since Creno's API treats a field as "not provided" only when it's absent from the JSON body entirely, not when it's sent as null.
