Availability and Rates

API methods to work with Availability and Rates information

Availability and Restriction information is the core data of Channex. This information represents how many rooms your property has to sell and what restrictions you have applied to each rate plan.

NOTE: At Channex availability information is represented at two levels: for Rate Plan and for Room Type. At Rate Plan we provide availability for specific Rate Plan, this value is derived from the Room Type availability. At Room Type we provide the real availability without any changes from modifiers.

    "date_to": "2019-02-28",
    "rate": 30000
  }]
}

Fields

Query object should contain values key with list of change objects. Each change object should have the next structure:

property_id [required] String with valid UUID of Property object.

rate_plan_id [required] String with valid UUID of Rate Plan object.

date [required] String with date in ISO 8601 format by mask YYYY-MM-DD. Past dates are not allowed.

date_from [required] if date is not present String with date in ISO 8601 format by mask YYYY-MM-DD. Start of applicable date range. Past dates are not allowed.

date_to [required] if date is not present String with date in ISO 8601 format by mask YYYY-MM-DD. End of applicable date range. Past dates are not allowed.
