API Channel integration with CuddlyNest
Thanks for the recommendation! Our developers have a pretty full plate right now, and they generally don't work on writing to new integrations. However, we do have an open API, so if you know anyone on the CuddlyNest side you can suggest they get in contact with us about developing an API connection and provide them the info below.
OwnerRez offers two open API methods that can be used, depending on what exactly you're looking to do.
First is our open OAuth-based API that you can read about here:https://www.ownerrez.com/support/articles/api-overview
That has traditional GET, POST end points for communicating with an OwnerRez account on demand and in real time. However, that is pretty limited as we only expose certain things and are working to expand it. For instance, you cannot book a property that way (ie. send live bookings through that). Each individual OwnerRez account owner also has to specifically authorize connection with your service using OAuth in their account.
We then also have a Channel Manager side that allows you to become a first-class integrated "channel" (like Vrbo, Booking.com, Airbnb, etc) and promotes you equally with those guys.
You can read about this API here:
To do this, you'd have to follow a feeds-based structure, which is compromised of:
For monetization using the Channel Manager API, you have a couple of choices:
