If Shopify Sidekick is available in your store's admin, you can ask it to look up booking information from CB Booking. The app's Sidekick tools are read-only.

Ask a focused question

Open Sidekick in Shopify admin and try a question such as:

  • “Who's coming tomorrow?” for a daily schedule.
  • “Show bookings with an unpaid balance this week.”
  • “When is [service] free on Friday?” for open hourly slots.
  • “Show the waitlist for Saturday.”
  • “How many no-shows this month?” for booking counts.

Include a service or date when the question could match many records. Sidekick can return links to matching app records so you can open the detail page.

Understand the limits

Sidekick can search bookings, show one-day or seven-day schedules, check hourly availability, count booking outcomes, list services, and inspect waitlist entries. Search results can be truncated; open the app list when you need every row. For multi-day or full-day services, ask for the booking details rather than expecting hourly open slots.

Contact details are returned only when looking up one specific booking. Sidekick should not display customer email or phone in a list answer.

Start using it

There is no separate connection form in CB Booking for Sidekick. Use Shopify's Sidekick chat where available, ask a focused question, and open the returned app link to verify or act on a record. If no booking matches, refine the date, service, or customer details instead of assuming the result covers all dates.
