After connecting to the client, and calling something like:

var unitList = this.client.getUnitList();

It takes a couple seconds and is blocking, the code following that line must wait for the call to return before proceeding. I would like to avoid that and use a success callback instead. Is there a simple way to wrap these calls so they operates asynchronously? Like with an onsuccess, onerror function?

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Hi! If you use client library from example, then pass last parameter as callback. In this case it will work asynchronously.
this.client.getUnitList(function (result) {
console.log(result);
});

Thank you, that helped!

One more quick question, where is the most up to date information about the API? is it API - Help with API, or is it API documentation | SimplyBook.me Online Scheduling?

I see some conflicts between the two so I’m just curious. Or if there is another method to see all of the available functions that would be great. Thank you!
