Steps to connect with “Airbnb”
The client gets in touch with Airbnb to create hotels and rooms on their side and do the necessary configuration.
Simultaneously, the client is requested to create the Airbnb reseller in MXTS. The steps to create/activate a new connection are shown on Reseller Configuration
Above step will create the Airbnb reseller in MXTS and the system will auto add mandatory settings (like Endpoints, credentials settings etc), however, the remaining configuration related to linking of locations/properties needs to be taken care of by the user
Client is requested to create a JIRA ticket with a heading like “Connection with Airbnb” and add all important information in the same and assign the ticket to support-connection@maxxton.com so the connection team is aware of your interest in connecting with the reseller and they can assist you with all the queries you post in this ticket
Create a new DC for the reseller Airbnb and make sure that all the identified resources should have that DC selected/added in their representation
Create an employee if not present and make sure that the AO (Admin Organization) & all the Resorts are linked to the newly created employee
Make sure all the prerequisite (mandatory configuration) mentioned by Airbnb are configured in Maxxton software for the Location and its Accommodations so the system can use that information to create the properties on the Airbnb side. You will find the prerequisite (mandatory configuration) in:
Create the linking for Airbnb hotel/room with MXTS properties in Linked Accommodation Types card. Kindly note that for Airbnb client has the option to list Accommodation-types on Airbnb website (Accommodation type linking), and they can even choose to list the individual Units on Airbnb (Unit level linking). Please click on Reseller Configuration to see steps on how it is done.
The support connection team will complete a few final steps like creating Job schedulers that will create the properties on Airbnb side (listing generation) and also creat Jobs for uploading prices & availability to Airbnb.
