# Test Accounts for Airbnb

Our staging account with Airbnb will allow to connect with any host, you will need to connect a live listing to test so make sure you are careful of the availability and prices in your inventory page before you map.

Ideal Flow:

* Connect Channex to your Airbnb Host account: Details: <https://docs.channex.io/channel-mapping-guides/airbnb>
* Check your availability and price, min stay etc are correct
* Map the lisitng
* Activate the channel
* Test bookings and messages
* Unmap the listing once you are finished

{% hint style="danger" %}
Be careful if you create fake listings in Airbnb as they may block your account. Also be careful if you connect real listings that you only do so while testing.
