Webhook Collection

You can create Webhooks to be notified about any changes of the property's ARI or about booking and some OTA specific webhooks. Webhooks are Push-notifications. When any changes happens, we send a POST request with JSON payload to the provided endpoint.

Webhook UI

We have an UI available to view, add and edit webhooks also so you can lessen your development efforts if you wish to manually set up instead of via API.

Payloads

No Data Version

The message is provided to the provided webhook endpoint, depending on the webhook settings (send_data). If send_data is true, Channex will push the message payload, if false message payload will be removed and target endpoint will only receive event, user_id and property_id fields.

{
  "event": "booking_new",
  "property_id": "90958ec0-9214-4796-873e-4add0d834670",
  "user_id": null,
  "timestamp": "2021-12-24T00:00:00.0000Z"
}

ARI (Availability, Rates & Restrictions)

Triggered when any changes have happened at the property State or inventory table. We provide information about changed prices, restrictions and availability.

Note: We have included the user ID of who generated the changes, this can be useful if you would like to ignore changes made by your own app.

{
  "event": "ari",
  "payload": [
    {
      "availability": 5,
      "booked": 7,
      "date": "2021-12-02",

  "user_id": null,
  "timestamp": "2021-12-24T00:00:00.0000Z"
}

Booking

Triggered when Channex receives a booking revision (New, Cancelled or Modified).

{
  "event": "booking",
  "payload": {
    "booking_id": "e10de9d1-3e2c-431c-b88c-ffca9ed5db5d",
    "property_id": "90958ec0-9713-1196-873e-4add0d834670",

  "user_id": null,
  "timestamp": "2021-12-24T00:00:00.0000Z"
}

This event was originally designed to trigger a Pull booking revision operation from the PMS. When this event arrives, we expect the PMS will call api/v1/booking_revisions/:id, to pull the new revision and ack it.

Alternatively the PMS can call the Feed endpoint also to get list of all unack bookings.

Booking Unmapped Room

Triggered when Channex receives a booking revision but can’t map it with existing Room Types. This can happen if the channel is not mapped correctly or if the OTA provides ID which has no mapping.

This event is designed to notify PMS about potential problems at mapping and usually used to trigger notification to support team at PMS side to investigate problems with mapping.

Please, keep in mind, to prevent any potential problems with overbookings, Mapping Issues should be solved in short time-frame and should have high priority.

{
  "event": "booking_unmapped_room",
  "payload": {
    "booking_id": "4995a8d5-552b-4d6c-acc5-cc8ca45bd32a",

  "user_id": null,
  "timestamp": "2021-12-24T00:00:00.0000Z"
}

Booking Unmapped Rate

Triggered when Channex receives a booking revision but can’t map it with existing Rate Plans.

This trigger will not come if revision has not mapped Room Type error. Booking Unmapped Room event will mute Booking Unmapped Rate, because when we have no mapped Room it also means rate is not mapped.

This event is designed to notify PMS about potential problems at mapping, but in that case, we can map Room (and correctly process Availability changes), but can’t map to Rate Plan.

Webhook message sequence

Before you start any integration with webhooks, you should to know -

Sequence of incoming webhook calls can be different from sequence of events which trigger that calls. Webhooks may come out of order.

Explanation

At property A we have 2 state changes event: Change availability for Room Type A from 0 to 1. Change availability for Room Type A from 1 to 0.

This events triggers 2 webhook calls with ari type. But when Channex sends the first webhook we might catch some network issue at middle level and message failed with a timeout error. This is a temporary error and webhook will be rescheduled. Second webhook had no issues and was sent successfully and would arrive first.

PMS receives webhook #2 with Availability 0. First webhook is queued for 2nd attempt to be sent to the target endpoint and this time all went well and we deliver that webhook.

PMS receive webhook #1 with Availability 1.

As a result, if PMS will interpret incoming results, this can cause problems. Instead use information from payload, we suggest to use webhooks as a trigger to execute logic to pull ARI info from Channex.

So, in case with Availability changes, we suggest instead using data from payload, trigger a pull request to get values for changed dates.

Booking Unmapped Room

Triggered when Channex receives a booking revision but can’t map it with existing Room Types. This can happen if the channel is not mapped correctly or if the OTA provides ID which has no mapping.

This event is designed to notify PMS about potential problems at mapping and usually used to trigger notification to support team at PMS side to investigate problems with mapping.

Please, keep in mind, to prevent any potential problems with overbookings, Mapping Issues should be solved in short time-frame and should have high priority.

Webhook message sequence

Before you start any integration with webhooks, you should to know -

Sequence of incoming webhook calls can be different from sequence of events which trigger that calls. Webhooks may come out of order.

Explanation

At property A we have 2 state changes event: Change availability for Room Type A from 0 to 1. Change availability for Room Type A from 1 to 0.

PMS receives webhook #2 with Availability 0. First webhook is queued for 2nd attempt to be sent to the target endpoint and this time all went well and we deliver that webhook.

PMS receive webhook #1 with Availability 1.

So, in case with Availability changes, we suggest instead using data from payload, trigger a pull request to get values for changed dates.
