How do I spin up a Whereby video meeting room?

Short answer: You can create meeting room in Whereby by hand from its own interface, but it won’t repeat itself. On TinyCommand, add the Whereby Create Meeting Room action to a workflow, map its 3 inputs from any upstream app, and it runs automatically every time the trigger fires. No code, and a free tier to start.
